I completed my undergraduate degree at the Lahore University of Management Sciences in Pakistan, and went to the University of Southern California, USA, to do my PhD in Economics. After completing my PhD in 2013, I taught undergraduate Economics at the University of Waterloo and Wilfrid Laurier University as a sessional lecturer.
