Cities #WithRefugees
As the data visualization designer at USA for UNHCR (the fundraising/awareness arm of UNHCR in the United States), I was part of a team that created the concept for this piece: a data piece that shows total funds raised in specific cities in the US, and how much this money is able to support refugees with specific objects and funds.

Roles
-
Creation of concept (feasibility of data assets, finding the right message, coming up with the visual metaphors): done together with rest of the team
-
Coding: mainly took care of all styling of elements. Worked on the main app (figuring out the logic behind the random array parser) together with team; debugged and worked to figure out some small kinks between the modules and Webpack configuration
- Art direction: worked closely with the illustrator responsible for the 3d assets we're loading with the three.js library (still figuring out some texture issues).
