Her work bridges computational methods with traditional macroeconomic analysis.

Recent articles (2017–2024) reveal a focus on labor market responses to economic fluctuations, gendered macroeconomic outcomes, and household-level risk management strategies. Though no scientific awards are listed, her work contributes significantly to debates on equitable economic policy design.
