Welcome to my website. I am a fourth-year PhD candidate in the Department of Political Science at Columbia University. I study how climate change is reshaping the international political economy, with a focus on firms and gender.

My dissertation project examines how exogenous shifts in women’s property rights affect adaptation to climate change. In the context of India, I study whether increasing women’s influence over assets changes how households respond to environmental risk, especially where men and women have uneven access to informal insurance and political networks.

In 2025-26, I served as the Political Science Department’s Lead Teaching Fellow, in collaboration with Columbia’s Center for Teaching and Learning.
