Hello! My name is Jane, I am an independent data visualization designer. I previously worked at Kantar developing reports for Fortune 500 clients.
My educational background is in life sciences and design strategy. Shortly after graduation, I worked at a startup during the day and began exploring my interest in data visualization in the evenings. Through personal projects, I have taught myself how to create data visualizations.
I am currently based in Toronto, Canada. Always happy to meet in person if you are in the area! Otherwise, feel free to contact me.
