Projects
Data-Driven Article
This was a project built with D3.js and Vega-Lite for CSCI3311 Data Visualization. I was given a dataset from an examination done on the HCS EdConnect internet broadband initiative in the local community of Chattanooga, Tennessee. Users are able to utilize a brushable scatterplot in which each point in the scatterplot would represent a family in the dataset. The subsequent stacked bar chart below the scatterplot would adjust based on the brushed-upon points. Below that, a pie chart would also automatically adjust. The key takeaway from this project and its data was that there are indications of a broader disproportionate pattern of low-income statuses affecting families of color than not.
Design and Redesign
This was a project built with HTML, CSS and Tableau to visualize student enrollment in specific majors at Boston College. Data was sorted data on Tableau by year for the columns, filtered for the top five over the given years, and the enrollment count was as the rows. In addition, I redesigned Florence Nightingale's famous Coxcomb chart to better visualize the causes of mortality in the Army from April 1855 to March 1856.
