I'm a PhD student at Princeton using econometrics to investigate the impacts of extreme weather and climate change. 

My current research projects include: 

• A comparison of different models for estimating the relationship between climate and migration. 

  • Modelling climate migration. With Nic Choquette-Levy, Michael Oppenheimer, Jordan Rosenthal-Kay, and Tingyin Xiao. 

  • Slides available here. 

• A study on the mortality costs of urban flooding and extreme rainfall in Mumbai, India. 

  • Rainfall and death in a developing megacity. With Ashwin Rode and Archana Patankar. Under submission. 

  • Draft available here.

• Developing new tools that can be used to estimate the casual relationship between climate and social outcomes.

  • Design-based climate econometrics. With Filippo Palomba. 

  • Draft available on request
