GIS and Data Viz

Maps are powerful storytelling tools—and my favorite form of data visualization! I love helping civic and nonprofit clients use them to spark understanding and action. I’ve built visualizations for city governments, grassroots campaigns, and policy researchers using tools like Mapbox, ArcGIS, and QGIS.
