Storytelling (using Data)

Storytelling using data is one of the fields I am interested in. I hold a bachelor of arts degree from Macalester College in Economics, Data Science, and International Development. Throughout this time, I learn that I am interested in using data to understand what it is telling us so that we can come up with a solution or policy that could help solve the issue that we are working on. I am also aware and understand that data doesn't tell us everything. I advocate and agree that we need the findings from the sociology/anthropology/psychology perspectives (to name a few) to make sure we take into account the human experience as well.
