Bio/Description

I would like to develop a stronger understanding of how to develop programs and policies in India that consider environmental impacts and incorporate climate resilience. 

Prior to coming to Princeton, I worked as a Senior Associate at IDinsight in New Delhi, my hometown. In this role, I worked with government and nonprofit partners to improve financial inclusion outcomes, and developed a free resource that guides nonprofits on how to use evidence. I previously worked in economic consulting in Washington, D.C., and studied economics at UPenn.
