Hi, I'm Nikki!
I’m a Washington, DC-based data visualization and analytics specialist. I am passionate about bringing data to life through accessible, engaging, and impactful visualizations. This site serves as a portfolio to showcase my work and connect with the data viz community!
My Recent Projects
Preventing Torture, Protecting Humanity
In collaboration with Viz for Social Good and the Association for the Prevention of Torture, this visual highlights the progress made over the past 40 years in establishing legal mechanisms to prevent torture at both global and domestic levels.
Diversity & Inclusion Insights: Visualizing LGBTQ+ Safety
This interactive Tableau dashboard explores safety metrics for LGBT communities around the world, from 2012-2021. It analyzes data from the Spartacus Gay Travel Index, which measures the legal situation and living conditions for members of the queer community.
Air Quality Index Interactive Tool
This interactive tool allows users to explore information about the air quality in their city for the year 2023. The data was collected from the EPA’s website and compiled by me, as the full 2023 dataset was not available for every city.
