I'm Ben, a data visualization developer working at the Urban Institute.

As a technologist specializing in data analytics and visualization, many of my projects employ JavaScript (Svelte, React, d3), R and Shiny. I have experience in data visualization platforms Microsoft Power BI and Looker Studio as well as other analytics tools like Google Analytics.
