I am a visiting scholar at the Watson Institute for International and Public Affairs at Brown University. I was formerly an Assistant Professor of Education at the Harvard Graduate School of Education

I study the political economy of development with a regional focus on South Asia, with comparative work in Latin America and sub-Saharan Africa. I am interested in the effects of education on citizen-state relations, political participation and socialization, and bureaucratic politics. My work has been published in Comparative Political Studies and Governance and has won awards from the Comparative International Education Society.

I received my Ph.D. and M.A. in political science from the University of Pennsylvania, and my B.A. in political science and economics from Stanford University.

You can find a copy of my CV here.

My published research and works in progress are here.

I teach classes on education politics, the use of data in international development, and the political economy of development.
