I am an Assistant Professor (tenure track) at Muskingum University in Ohio and a Fellow at the Global Labor Organisation (GLO). I also serve as an editorial board member at the SN Business and Economics journal. 

My research lies at the intersection of environmental, resource, and development economics. As an applied microeconomist, I investigate the causal effects of environmental policies and climatic shocks on economic outcomes, including labor markets, health, and human capital. My work has been published in leading journals such as Land Economics, Environment and Development Economics, and Review of Development Economics. 

I completed my Ph.D. and MS in Economics at the School of Economics, Georgia Institute of Technology. Prior to that, I earned a bachelor's degree from Mumbai University and an MBA from the Indian Institute of Management, Calcutta, India.


Before transitioning to academia, I spent over seven years in industry, where I held diverse roles in sales, marketing, process improvement, operational excellence, and business strategy.
