I specialize in energy and environmental economics, with both professional and academic grounding in energy and environmental policy. I bring experience to the evolving landscape of sustainable transportation, mainly electric vehicles and public infrastructure policy. My research focuses on electric vehicle (EV) charging behavior, infrastructure incentives, and demand-side energy management—leveraging high-resolution data and econometric modelling to inform policy and investment decisions.
My job market paper examines how the expansion of public charging infrastructure can encourage out‑of‑home charging and intensify electric vehicle (EV) usage. While EVs are often perceived as inadequate for alleviating range anxiety and not the preferred choice for longer trips, my research investigates how charging infrastructure plays a pivotal role in reshaping these perceptions. By using reduced form estimation of behavioral and usage impacts of greater station density, I highlight how infrastructure growth unlock the full potential of EVs in sustainable transportation.
With over 5 years of experience across Canada, India, and the UK (including roles at CDP and Ford Motor Pvt Ltd. where I contributed to flagship climate reports and datasets), and assisted in field experiments with major utilities and collaborated on policy-relevant research with leading economists, I believe my work work bridges the gap between data and decision-making, helping shape evidence-based strategies for net-zero transitions.
I am actively seeking economist or research-oriented roles in think tanks, public institutions, or policy-focused organizations where I can apply my expertise to drive impactful change in climate governance, and energy infrastructure planning.
I am eager to contribute to teams working at the intersection of transportation electrification, data science, and public policy. I’d love to connect if this aligns with your mission and are interested for a conversation on clean transportation.
