Her research focuses on the social and cultural identity of the Greek East under Roman rule, with particular emphasis on language use (Latin in Greek-speaking Anatolia), epigraphy, and the Hellenistic kingdoms. She explores how Roman provincial elites navigated bilingualism, political propaganda, and institutional structures.

Key trends in her publications include studies on Roman Anatolia, Greek civic identity, Hellenistic coinage, and military dynamics. Her work spans topics such as honorific inscriptions for women, Macedonian imperial symbolism, and Roman provincial administration.
