This is her youtube channel. If you haven't read the paper on this algorithm, I think you can get a good intuitive understanding by watching the two videos she has on there from (what looks like) her thesis, and I think it becomes clear why she was selected to lead this project.

Specifically, these two videos:

So, consider that these two videos are basically the "one-dimensional" solution, or one pin-hole camera example. In the approach that her and her team to image the black hole, they used many, many radio antennas', all acting in concert in a not-too different version of what she did her for the work on her YT channel.
