Telling Stories with Data - Spring 2021 Portfolio

This is my public portfolio for the Telling Stories with Data class. I completed a data visualization project on redlining in Pittsburgh, which you can see here. See below to see the three major sections of this project. You can see my overall Github portfolio here.

About me

My name is Brendon Gray. I use he/him pronouns. I’m originally from Albuquerque, NM, land of green chile and the world’s largest hot air ballon fiesta (pictured below!).

I’m in the flagship MSPPM program, and I’m working toward a career in state or local government. Outside of school and work, I love to read, write, and cook.

What I hope to learn

My primary goal for this class is to strenthen my process of making data visualizations. I’m guilty of having used sloppy Excel bar charts for professional presentations, and I’d like to be able to analyze and quickly improve a visualization. I’d also like to practice my feedback skills as visual mediums can be particuarly hard to critique.
