Welcome to my homepage!

I am an Associate Professor and Research Fellow, with extensive experience in agricultural economics, environmental sustainability, and food systems.

My research focuses on agricultural economics, food systems, and food policy. I examine issues such as groundwater management, food security, and sustainable agricultural practices to address environmental challenges and improve decision-making in food systems.

My research covers both consumption and production sides of agricultural systems. My work has been published in peer-reviewed journals such as Science of the Total Environment, Canadian Journal of Agricultural Economics, Scientific Reports, Journal of Retailing and Consumer Services, and International Journal of Disaster Risk Reduction.
