In 1999 worked as research scientist at the Scuola Normale Superiore - Pisa, studying the pre-roman languages of Sicily and in 2003 at the University of Verona, studying the Venetic name system and epigraphy. She was assistant professor at the University of Tübingen (1996-1998), teaching “Introduction to Onomastic Sciences”, “Introductions to Archaic Latin”, “Introduction to Relict Languages”, “Magic and Language” and at the University of Verona (2003-2011), teaching “Pre-Roman Languages of Ancient Italy”, “Phonetics and Phonology”, “Comparative History of Classic Languages”, both to graduate and postgraduate students. In 2009 founded at Verona a research Institution – in 2012 officially accredited by the Italian Ministery of Scientific Research and University –, devoted to a multidisciplinary study of interactions among peoples in time and space. As scientific responsible of Alteritas she coordinates many research projects and edits books and miscellanea on this topic as well.
