My primary research interests concern bureaucracies, service delivery, and the political economy in low- and middle-income countries with a particular focus on state capabilities and management practices within the public sector.
My doctoral project focuses on bureaucracy and public service provision in India. My JMP can be found here.
My research uses both, quantitative and qualitative methods. I have presented preliminary results at various international conferences including EPSA, PMRC, GLD, and King's Business School.
Together with Dan Berliner (LSE) and Ashmita Gupta (ADRI), I have been part of the ISPF-funded project "State Effectiveness, Bureaucratic Management Practices, and Citizen-State Interaction in India" conducted in 2024-2025. See the Policy and Media section for more.
I further held consultancy roles with the International Budget Partnership and the World Bank Group.
I also have teaching experience at the UG level and have been GTA for LSE's Executive Master programme for the course on Fiscal Governance and Budgeting for three years. In 2025, I have also been Associate Lecturer (Teaching) in Public Policy at UCL where I taught the master's course on Public Management: Theories and Innovations. I further hold the Head Tutor role for LSE's Online Certificate Course on Public Policy Transformation: AI, Innovation, and Technology.
Before starting my PhD I obtained an MSc in Development Studies at the LSE.
In my free time, I am also co-leading Nitya Bal Vikas Deutschland e. V., a German charitable organisation that I co-founded in 2015. We support civil society efforts in India.
