Hello! Here's a revised #introduction now that more people are on here and I know to use hashtags.

I am a #development #economist at #Princeton. https://www.seemajayachandran.com

A lot of my research is on #GenderEquality or the #Environment / #ClimateChange

My other hats include chairing #JPAL's #gender sector, co-directing the NBER's #DevelopmentEcon program, and serving on the board of the non-profit CARE.

Previously, I wrote for the NYT's Economic View column: https://www.nytimes.com/by/seema-jayachandran
