Welcome! My research agenda focuses on using field experiments to learn what social policies work, what do not, and why. Most of my work is in developing countries and typically examines microfinance programs for the poor. Other research covers fundraising, voting, education and behavioral economics.

My microfinance research agenda comprises projects which examine the impact on clients and households and projects which examine the efficacy of a given design.

Much of my research is coordinated through
Innovations for Poverty Action
and the
M.I.T. Jameel Poverty Action Lab.
