Silvia Romanelli
Hello, I’m Silvia.
I’m a data visualization designer based in France.
In the past I’ve worked in journalism and in digital communication in the non-profit sector.
I think data visualization is a great way of telling stories that create insights, understanding and empathy. It can help us make informed decisions and contribute to bringing about social change.
My aspiration is to apply my skills and knowledge to topics I care about.
I’m available for:
- whatever idea of data visualization you may have! (other than dashboarding)
- talks, workshops and articles on data visualization
- dataviz mockups and prototypes
- dataviz UX research and testing
You can find me on Linkedin and Twitter, or you can drop me an email at silvia.romanelli.it@gmail.com.
