She writes in the areas of refugee law, and her articles have appeared in the Indiana Law Journal, Colorado Law Review, Georgetown Immigration Law Journal, and Columbia Human Rights Law Review.

Professor Gupta received her B.A. with high honors in psychology and women's studies from the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor and her J.D. from Yale Law School, where she was an Equal Justice America Fellow, director of the Temporary Restraining Order Project Domestic Violence Clinic, director of the Rebellious Lawyering Conference, and an editorial board member of the Yale Journal of Law and Feminism.

Straub of the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit and the Honorable Charles P. Sifton of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York.

Prior to joining the Rutgers faculty, Professor Gupta served as assistant professor of law and director of the Immigrant Rights Clinic at the University of Baltimore School of Law, where she supervised students representing immigrants seeking various forms of relief before the Department of Homeland Security, the immigration courts, the Board of Immigration Appeals, and the federal courts of appeals. She also served as a clinical teaching fellow in the Center for Applied Legal Studies at Georgetown Law, where she supervised students representing asylum seekers.

She began her law teaching career as a clinical fellow at the Center for Social Justice at Seton Hall University School of Law, where she supervised students and represented clients in cases involving asylum, human trafficking, domestic violence, immigrant labor rights, and criminal immigration issues. She also authored an amicus brief to the United States Supreme Court and traveled to Haiti as part of the Haiti Rule of Law Project.

At Rutgers, she serves as the director of the Immigrant Rights Clinic in Newark.
