I'm a journalist who makes rich interactive stories to help people better understand the world around them. 
I use data and reporting to help readers connect their experiences with the larger systems in which we exist.
I'm an assistant professor at the New School where I teach in the Journalism and Design program. Most recently I was the head of visuals and data at the Guardian US, where I led a team of data journalists, photo editors, and visual editors. I've also worked as a data journalist at Vox, the Wall Street Journal, ESPN, the Boston Globe, and the Connecticut Mirror.
When I'm not teaching, I work on stories for the Pudding. I'm a senior fellow with USC Center for Health Journalism, where I mentor the journalists who are part of the program's data fellowship. And I'm an affiliated researcher with a group at Northeastern University that is using design and data science to foster more diverse schools.
I grew up in Kansas to Korean immigrants. I have a master's degree from NYU's Interactive Telecommunications Program. I now live in Brooklyn.
