Profile

Profile
My research focuses on agricutural and resource policies for sustainable production and development. Building on insights from microeconomics, my studies aim to provide new empirical evidence that inform theories and practices of sustainable development policies. Methodologically, I regularly conduct household surveys and field experiments to collect original research data. I have a strong interest in causal inference and applied econometrics. Exploring the application of these methods to analyze diverse data types from household census to satellite imagery has been a rewarding journey. My research has been published in international journals such as World Development, Food Policy, Energy Policy, and Economic Analysis and Policy.
