Picture
I am an economist at the Asian Development Bank, in the Economic Analysis and Operational Support Division of the Economic Research and Development Impact Department, where I work on the economic analysis of transport projects.

My research spans environmental and energy economics, urban and transport economics, and applied microeconomics. I study whether infrastructure, environmental, and social policies improve welfare and reduce pollution, congestion, and climate impacts, particularly in developing and emerging economies, using granular spatial data, household- and firm-level microdata, and causal inference methods. My work has been published in Science, the American Economic Journal: Economic Policy, and the Journal of Environmental Economics and Management.

Before ADB I spent eight years at the World Bank's Poverty and Equity Global
Practice, where I worked on welfare measurement, the distributional analysis of policy reforms such as energy pricing and tariff reform, and real-time monitoring of household welfare through high-frequency surveys. I was a core team member of the Bank's High Frequency Monitoring program and led the Listening-to household survey series across Central Asia and Ukraine, with applied work on poverty measurement, survey-to-survey imputation, small-area estimation, and the integration of geospatial and satellite data with household surveys.
