I completed my PhD at the University of Manchester in the United Kingdom with three essays on weather shocks, gender and intrahousehold dynamics in Uganda. After working as an Economist at the United Nations World Food Programme in Rome, Italy for nearly three years, I decided to return to academia mid 2021 and joined the University of Washington in Seattle to do a postdoc. My current research examines the impacts of weather shocks on household welfare and their respective adaptation, and inclusive agricultural transformation with a a geographical focus on sub-Saharan Africa.
