Welcome to my website!

I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Geography at the Maxwell School of Syracuse University. Previously I was a faculty member in the Department of Geography at King’s College London (2006-2008). I obtained my PhD in Geography from the University of Minnesota (2007), where I was a Macarthur Scholar. I have a BA (Honors) in Geology and Environmental Studies from Princeton University (1996) and an MA in Geography from University of Minnesota (1998). I am broadly interested in nature-society relationships, development studies, feminist theories, climate change, water governance, and South Asia. I have conducted research in Bangladesh for several years on a variety of environment-development topics. I was a Programme Officer at the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in Bangladesh between 1998-2001.
