In 2016-2017, I was a Visiting Research Fellow at UNICEF Office of Research under the Transfer Project. I am an applied microeconomics and my research interests lie at the intersection of Development economics, Education Economics, and Labour Economics. My research has been published in journals such as Journal of African Economies and Education Economics. I hold a PhD in Economics from the University of Cape Town.
