I am an Assistant Professor of Education at Stanford University and co-Director at the Stanford Lemann Center. I am also a faculty affiliate at the Stanford King Center on Global Development and at the Stanford Center on Early Childhood. Previously, I was an Assistant Professor of Economics of Child Well-being and Development at the University of Zurich.
I am interested in the sources of education inequities in the global south, and in interventions with the potential to overturn them.
