Her 2023-2025 outputs reveal concentrated exploration of digital well-being frameworks for refugees, social policy implications of migration, and quantitative anxiety studies in educational contexts. This demonstrates increasing interdisciplinary collaboration between psychology, social policy, and digital humanities with strong policy translation focus.
