Her research lies at the intersection of structural and extremal graph theory, emphasizing conditions that guarantee specific cycle and path structures in graphs. She also investigates threshold properties, where the addition of a single edge significantly alters a graph's behavior.

Recent publications highlight her work on connection numbers in graphs, long cycles in tripartite graphs, geometric realizations of cyclic configurations, and degree sum conditions for dominating paths. These studies span theoretical graph properties and interdisciplinary applications in mathematical education.
