Some of my recent work Data-driven, visual stories that explain topics in creative ways.

I’m a designer-developer and journalist at The ABC (Australia). My job is to innovate with journalism — to look for new ways to find and tell stories, beyond traditional, words-only reporting.


About me

I’m a visual communicator working in the intersection of news, design and technology. When words alone fall short, I find ways to translate complex information into approachable, visually-compelling stories. By combining my coding skills with my passion for design, I create interactive graphics that engage and inform readers in a digital space.

Having grown up on the East Coast of the United States, I made a leap to the other side of the world and wound up in Australia. (It’s a long story.) I earned a B.S. in Computer Science & Design from Northeastern University in Boston where I discovered the powerful role that technology can have in a newsroom. I’m always looking for ways to innovate and push boundaries in the way we craft and consume media.

I’m also a proud member of the Asian American Journalists Association where I helped to establish and lead the “News Nerds” affinity group for members like myself who are interested, or working, in the tech and journalism space.

Ironically, I picked up ice hockey only after leaving New England and moving to Melbourne. Now it’s my whole personality, and I proudly play for the Southern Lights.
