Bio

I am a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Global Policy Lab at University of California, Berkeley supervised by Solomon Hsiang. I earned a PhD in Agricultural & Resource Economics with a designated emphasis in Development Engineering from Berkeley where I was an Innovations at the Nexus of Food, Energy, and Water Systems Fellow.

I study questions related to how agricultural systems around the world interact with the environment, often using remote sensing and machine learning tools which I sometimes help develop. My current projects include quantifying the environmental benefits of conservation agriculture adoption in Mexico, re-examining the effects of China's Household Responsibility System using historical satellite imagery, and exploring how civil conflict affects agricultural land use.
