Research interests integrate medieval literature with interdisciplinary frameworks: historical linguistics, postcolonial theory, psychoanalysis, Deleuze studies, and evolutionary biology. Her work bridges textual analysis with archaeological perspectives, challenging traditional boundaries between pre-modern and contemporary thought.
Publications include the 2019 monograph *Anglo-Saxon(ist) Pasts, postSaxon Futures* (punctum books), which explores postcolonial and Deleuzian reinterpretations of Old English texts. This work engages subfields such as biolinguistics and pre-conquest Latin manuscripts.
