More recently, her work examines the intersection of artificial intelligence and personal branding in higher-education contexts. Across her publications, three consistent themes emerge: (1) understanding and managing customer emotions during and after service experiences; (2) frontline employee decision-making when faced with ethically or operationally “gray” customer requests; and (3) mechanisms—psychological, relational, and technological—that deepen or dissolve customer–brand relationships over time.
