Her research examines school and community partnerships for historically marginalized students and families, especially immigrant populations, and school/district leaders' responses to it. She has contributed to the advocacy for marginalized students and families through research regarding state- and local-level educational policies (e.g., classroom censorship, dual credit funding, and early college advising). She has supported PK-20 students who are primarily low-income, first-generation, and immigrant students in various countries. She is currently supporting parenting students at UT with research, one-on-one support, and grant writing.
