Economics

I am a third-year Economics PhD student at Stanford University. My research examines how individuals interact with AI systems in consequential decision-making contexts, particularly in developing countries. Drawing on behavioral and development economics, I design experiments to study how cognitive biases, social norms, and institutional constraints shape these interactions. More broadly, my work seeks to understand how technologies are embedded in social systems and how they can be designed to reflect behavioral, social, and contextual realities—while remaining scalable and effective in resource-constrained settings.
