Her work examines how urban spaces are regulated through technologies like CCTV and how public health approaches reshape policing. Recent studies include pandemic-era crisis management in policing and public health collaborations, and the transformation of community safety frameworks to prioritize vulnerable populations.
Teaching includes modules on criminological theories and responses to crime, with a focus on integrating real-world policy applications into academic discourse.
