Thanks for visiting my website! I’m an Assistant Professor in the School of Public Policy at Pennsylvania State University. My research focuses on the relationship between environment and development and explores how households across The Global South are affected by environmental change. Previously, I was a Postdoctoral Researcher at UC-Santa Barbara (emLab) and Princeton University (High Meadows Environmental Institute) and received my PhD from the London School of Economics (Department of Geography and Environment and the Grantham Research Institute).

In addition to my academic work, my website includes a few blogs I’ve written over the years. You can read more about my journey here and some posts on lessons learned from 25 years of mental health challenges and how this experience has taught me the importance of making my mind my friend.
