Hello! I am a Graduate Student at the IIES, Stockholm University.

I am a development economist working in economics of migration and gender. In my research, I study barriers to physical mobility and migration in the developing world, and evaluate the benefits from removing these barriers. In many contexts, these constraints are more pronounced for women, hence gender-specific aspects of these questions are a natural part of my work.
