Her work spans condensed matter physics, quantum computing hardware, and materials engineering, with recent publications investigating ultrafast magnetic dynamics in Kitaev systems, pressure-induced tuning of honeycomb lattices, and dielectric loss mitigation in superconducting qubits. She also studies Weyl semimetals' anomalous Hall effects and vortex motion-induced losses in tantalum resonators.

Current research trends include spin-orbit coupling engineering, topological materials, and quantum state manipulation through experimental and computational approaches. Her publications reflect a strong emphasis on pressure-tuning, coherence optimization, and novel quantum phases in magnetic and superconducting systems.
