I am a Research Scientist at Meta where I conduct economics research to answer strategic questions related to the digital economy, small businesses, advertising, and related topics. See here for a recent example of the kind of work I do at Meta. 

I use a combination of randomized experiments, observational methods for causal inference, and surveys in my research. 

My work has appeared in academic journals such as the American Political Science Review and PS: Political Science and Politics, as well as popular publications including the Washington Post and Dawn Pakistan. 

I hold a PhD in Public Policy from Harvard University and a BA in Political Economy & Philosophy from Williams College.
