Hi there!

Welcome to my website...

I am an aspiring applied economist. I enjoy working on topics at the intersection of economy, society and environment. Well, that pretty much covers everything!! In an attempt to optimize my labor-leisure trade-off, my current research efforts are devoted towards analyzing:

impact of socio-economic identities, such as caste, on rural credit markets in India
how past experiences of rainfall shocks can affect labor supply and agricultural wages
joint effects of temperature and rainfall extremes on crop yields: both past and future

I received my BA (Economics) and MA (Economics) from Jadavpur University, Kolkata (India). Before starting my PhD, I was a Junior Research Fellow at Observer Research Foundation, India's leading public policy think tank.
