About

I am an artist, technologist, and musician based in Burlington, VT. My work centers on using data as a creative material, at times becoming visual, sound, and experience. In general, I am interested in the translation of information into new and non-traditional forms—colors becoming sound, dancing becoming swirling visuals, observation becoming landscape maps, and asteroids becoming a floating soundscape.

I currently work as a Research Data Visualization Engineer at University of Vermont with the Vermont Complex Systems Center and the Center for Community News, where I build data visualization tools, products, and stories. With a background in journalism, I view visualization as fundamentally an exercise in storytelling.

Previously, I have worked with scientists to visualize data in the Pattern lab at the Broad Institute, taught data visualization courses at Northeastern University, and created interactive visualizations for Cornell's Lab of Ornithology, Floodbase, and various online publications.

I also create weird prototypes, make electronic music, play steel guitar, and write a semi-regular newsletter called Data Curious.
