Citizen Codex: Editorial Design


Citizen Codex is a creative data agency that exists to liberate research and data through the power of data journalism. For too long, knowledge rich institutions have struggled to communicate their research, having to rely on the media to translate and distribute for them. Citizen Codex works directly with research centers, think tanks, advocacy organizations, and other similar institutions to help them share their insights and data more clearly with the world. Through innovative digital experiences, Citizen Codex brings complex data sets into the future, ensuring that every interaction becomes a profound information moment.

As a freelance contributor to Citizen Codex, I am creating key editorial visuals for data stories, designed to accurately reflect the topics, and draw attention to the important work behind the scene. This is a collection of editorial works that I had the opportunity to work on at Citizen Codex.
