About Me

Greetings!

I am an Economist specializing in monetary economics, open economy macroeconomics, and international economics. My work is driven by a passion for analyzing complex economic systems and uncovering insights that can inform policy decisions and enhance economic outcomes. With strong research skills and a keen ability to synthesize data, I focus on identifying key trends and implications for policymaking and broader global governance. In addition to my research, I am deeply committed to teaching and empowering students. I am committed to fostering a collaborative learning environment where ideas are exchanged freely, critical thinking is encouraged, and economic theory is brought to life. I find great fulfillment in guiding students on their academic journeys and helping them engage with real-world economic challenges while nurturing the next generation of thinkers and problem-solvers.

About me
- Originally from India, I came to the U.S. to get my doctoral degree. Armed with a bachelor’s degree in Economics and two additional master’s degrees in the same field, I am fervently engaged in studying the dynamic setup of open economy macroeconomic policies. Alongside my research pursuits, teaching is a genuine passion of mine, and I have gained valuable experience instructing undergraduate courses. An avid reader, I find equal joy in exploring new destinations and expressing my creativity through sketching. I’m always open to new experiences, cultures, and ways of thinking.
