She works in the areas of historical and comparative linguistics, language contact, language documentation, and grammatical analysis and theory. Among the courses that she teaches are World Englishes, Historical Linguistics, History of English Language, Phonology, Field Methods, and Gypsy Language and Culture. Her research focuses on Indo-Aryan languages (e.g. Hindi, Urdu, Kashmiri, and Romani or "Gypsy" language) and Burushaski.
