Hi, I'm Alli Torban.
My mission is to help you be a more effective analyst, journalist or artist by sharing stories about how data visualizations are made.
My background is in Mathematics & Geospatial Intelligence, and I've spent the past decade working as an analyst, software tester and technical product manager in the D.C.-Metro area. Currently I’m a Data Visualization Designer for the American Enterprise Institute.
I started the podcast and my courses because I want to help you achieve your data viz goals while also honing my skills!
Please reach out if you're interested in collaborating or just want to say hi. I'd love to hear from you! My portfolio.
