She has explored these topics with studies of a wide variety of cases, including the US animal rights movement, the 2017 Women's March, and Jewish resistance during the Holocaust. She is also part of an interdisciplinary research team that is using Twitter data to examine diversity and inclusion in contemporary social movements.
