She investigates how media can invite audiences into different social realities, fostering empathy and belief change, and create shifts in worldview that reduce harmful social norms. She takes a transformative mixed-methods approach to research, using interviews, surveys, and experiments to study how audiences are influenced by entertainment and social media."
