Writer &

Data Storyteller

I tell stories.

Whether my medium is a spreadsheet or newsprint, I take in information about an organization, subject, or industry and craft it into a narrative. To me, everything is data. And the data left behind from the actions of the world need to be understood so that people can make informed decisions.

 

Everything is also a story. Numbers in a pie chart tell as much of a story as a painting, or a performance. I can find the connections in everything, the natural rise and fall of one event to the next.

 

So whatever the subject, I absorb the information, analyze it, synthesize it, and present the narrative that it tells back to the intended audience, in whichever form they require.

I specialize in literary-, performing-, and fine-arts.
