She is interested in spatialisation and representation of invisibles in an urban setting and discovering gaps between urban policy , governance and city data. Her research mainly involves delayering and mapping migrant communities, informal livelihood and settlements. She also enjoys telling stories through illustrations, doodles and comics.
