Her research and teaching interests are focused on different types of natural resources (e.g. diamonds, carbonatites, oceanic sediments, water and gas shales) for better understanding of their occurrence and formation, with implications towards their sustainable management. Her research on the study of shales, investigates the circulation of volatiles through these rocks using different geochemical tracers, that can constrain the contamination pathways in these commonly occurring surficial rocks, beside placing constraints on the expulsion of hydrocarbons from these unconventional reservoirs. She is also interested in aspects of urban science focusing on the environmental effects of climate change on our geo-heritage sites.
