Her MA research examines the ways second-generation Indian Americans negotiate their ethnoracial identities through the symbolic boundaries they place around the categories of American, Indian, and Desi, and how transnational processes of Hindu nationalism and nationalist ideologies inform these constructions and boundary formations.
