About me

I am a Senior Economist at the World Bank. I work on helping governments design, implement and evaluate social protection and employment programs in West Africa and India.

Before joining the World Bank in 2012, I was Research and Policy Fellow at SALDRU, within the University of Cape Town, South Africa. From 2008 to 2010 I was Executive Director of J-PAL South Asia in Chennai, India. I earned a Ph.D. in Economics from the Paris School of Economics.
