She has undertaken research which examines the intersections of gender and rurality and explored how gender and rurality are mediated by social locations such as disability, class, sexuality, youth, ethnicity and Indigeneity to create inclusions and exclusions.

Her research interests include labour migration, gender, rurality and community. This research is grounded in empirical work which critically examines the Australian mining sector, but also encompasses temporary migration, fly-in-fly-out mobilities, corporate social responsibility, women and work and the place of local communities.
