CodeTheCity: "Doodling data: a tale of hand-drawn data visualisations" - Martina Pugliese

"I run a newsletter, Doodling Data, where I create hand-drawn data doodles/visualisations, I rant about the data world and write more technical/ sciencyposts

I will go through a few of my data visualisations, from different realms, and explain how I made them, the motivations and what I learned along the way. I usually treat funky and quirky topics that are meant to generate a smile, for example in literature, art or music, but sometimes I also do some with a less lighthearted theme, such as in climate change.

I will try to make the point that doing things by hand when you're all day in front of a screen is not only relaxing but extremely rewarding! "

Bio: Martina has worked in data science for (ugh!) almost a decade now. She covered mostly research-oriented roles with an accent on building ML systems, but she also contributed to the various stages of data workflows: data pipelining/engineering, data analysis and statistics, data vizzing and influencing stakeholders etc. She led small teams and mostly worked in startups, but also in a large org.
