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

  • Mortality, rainfall, and urban flooding in a developing megacity. With Ashwin Rode and Archana Patankar. Draft available on request. 

• An evaluation of the relationship between hurricanes, temperature, and consumption patterns in the US. 

• An analysis of the ways in which weather and beliefs about climate influence migration patterns. 

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