I am a currently a Research Economist (Assistant Project Scientist) at UC Berkeley's Center for Effective Global Action.
My research interests are development economics, public economics, political economy and health.
My research primarily consists of field experiments in Kenya. Current projects include studies of the effects of cash transfers on a broad range of outcomes, including public goods, and on the long-term effects of child health interventions.
Prior to starting graduate school, I was an Assistant Economist in Research Group of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
