I’m a postdoctoral researcher in the oil and gas program at KAPSARC. I earned my Ph.D in Economics at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. My fields are in finance, labor economics, and econometrics. My broad research focuses on stock market returns, the impact of liberalization on the financial sector, the speculative behaviour in the the oil and gas market, and the role of Sovereign Wealth Funds. Concurrently, I’m passionate about studying the trends of female participation in the labor market.
