Welcome
to my WebSite. I graduated with a PhD from Agricultural
and Applied Economics Department of Virginia
Polytechnic Institue and State University, VA
in December 2005. This WebSite is designed solely

Prior to my academic career at VT,
I earned a Bachelor's degree, BA (Honors) in economics
at University
of Delhi, India. Then I pursued MA in economics
at Delhi School of
Economics. I taught economics at University
of Delhi for a brief tenure and then started working
at NCAER, Delhi,
as a Research Associate. During this time I grew more
interested in a research oriented career in Economics.
Following my academic interests in Natural Resource
and Environmental Economics, I got admitted to the
PhD program at VT
in Fall 2001.
My
parents are settled in New Delhi. I recently started
my own family with Amrish
Vyas, a PhD student at University
of Maryland at Baltimore County, MD.
