DataVis journalist @ The National (Abu Dhabi, UAE)

I dedicate —some of— my working hours to painting charts and maps.

I created this account because the datavis community moved here, and I miss them.

Hiii. First of all, thank you for your kind words!

The microsite was built with Shorthand (shorthand.com), and the illustrations and some of the graphics were made in Illustrator (with a bit of help from R)

The National’s Data team cross-referenced public databases of the recorded deaths of the journalists covering the war. And last week, our latest visual project was published. In there, we show the circumstances and patterns of killings.

Also, here are the draft charts I usually do in R before formatting the data for Flourish.

Soy mexicano, así que si alguien por aquí speakea español, siéntese con la libertad de chismear y nerdear conmigo.
