Research Interests
My main research interests lie in health and environmental economics, focusing on how economics can be leveraged to reduce socio-economic inequalities and promote environmental justice.
My research explores the environmental determinants of health and climate-related policies,
particularly how these policies perform and impact individuals.
I am especially interested in socioeconomic disparities in health, the role of environmental exposure in exacerbating these inequalities, and the co-benefits of environmental policies.
