bio

I like turning messy data — spatial, mobility, satellite, administrative, and networks — into models and visual stories that help people reason about complex systems. I recently obtained a PhD in Computational Social Science from ETH Zurich under the supervision of Dirk Helbing, and earlier a masters in mathematics also from ETH Zurich.
