Her research focuses on the future of multilingualism and the evolving role of English in the Nordic context, with particular attention to how societal, technological, and educational developments shape language use, language policy, and multilingual practices over time.

Her academic trajectory builds on earlier work on the future of English language teaching, which formed the focus of her Master’s thesis.
