Her main research interests concern cognitive linguistics, applied linguistics, and figurative language. She has presented various papers at national and international conferences on these topics. Additionally, she had the opportunity to hone her methodological training at Lancaster University (United Kingdom) thanks to an international research stay at the Department of Linguistics and English Language in 2022.

She has been involved in various, funded research projects on metaphor, L2/L3 vocabulary, and CLIL, working with local and international colleagues.

Her work has been published in journals such as Review of Cognitive Linguistics and VIAL, and she has also published book chapters with Peter Lang and Tirant lo Blanch. See Open-Access publications here: https://dehesa.unex.es/browse?type=author&authority=ad55f0ed-8156-4932-9...
