Visualizing health data can be complicated.

Let’s work together to create

meaningful health visualizations.

When I studied public health, chart design was prescriptive: lines for trends, bars for categories, and chart titles that described the metric rather than the message.

Health data deserves better, and the modern world demands more.

I work with teams to design impactful data visualizations, from static charts and slide decks to reports and interactive dashboards that enable the story-finding necessary to enable data storytelling. I apply human-centered design and agile methods to data projects, and enable organizations to do the same.

I also lead workshops and speak about data visualization, with the goal to inspire others to dive into the data viz world.

That purpose has inspired my leadership of the global Data Viz Society, with the aim to nurture, celebrate, and advance the field of data visualization.

My work is rooted in the belief the we must visualize data responsibly, considering the impact and unintended consequences of the charts we share, particularly in our AI-enabled world where meaning and trust in data requires keeping a human in the design loop.
