Personal profile
Research interests
My research interests lie in the intersection of international environmental cooperation and trade. Specifically, my research focusses on impacts and implications of policies on welfare and carbon leakage. I am interested in both theoretical and applied research in the above fields but have a stronger expertise in the former.
Scholarly biography
Prior to my current area of research, I have worked as a consultant in real estate and completed projects related to economic forecasting and financial modelling of real estate developments. As a researcher, I have implemented projects on socio-economic impacts of trade on handicraft workers, need assessment and tax evasion studies.
