In 2013 she wrote her doctoral thesis on Lessemi di origine romanza relativi alla sfera semantica dell’economia domestica attestati negli idiomi dell’isola di Veglia: analisi etimologica e lessicologica (Lexemes of Romance Origin in the Semantic Field of the Household Attested in the Idioms of the Island of Krk: an Etymological and Lexicological Analysis) at the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences at the University of Ljubljana, Slovenia.

The field of her professional and scientific interest includes contact linguistics (especially Roman-Slavic), phraseology, toponymy, etymology, and sociolinguistics and is mostly concerned with the linguistic aspects of the Kvarner region on the Northern Adriatic Coast in Croatia.
