I am an Economist at the Center for Labor Economics of the ifo Institute at the University of Munich. I am also a CESifo Research Affiliate.

My research interests include Development Economics, Family Economics and Economics of Crime. My work is focused on the causes of violence against women and what type of interventions are effective in preventing it. The focus of my research has been India, UK, Mexico, El Salvador, and Mozambique.

I am currently the holder of a Leibniz Junior Research Groups Grant under the project "The Economics of Violence Against Women: Understanding Causes and Identifying Remedies".
