I work at the Investigative Data Desk at globalnews.ca in Toronto, where I use maps and interactives (and words, where necessary) to tell stories.

For much of 2010, I was a contributing editor at openfile.ca, where my Poppy File project won a Canadian Online Publishing Award and was shortlisted for an Online News Association award.

I was a Web editor at thestar.com, the Toronto Star's Web site, from 2001 to mid-2010.

My Map of the Week blog, launched in mid-2008, attracted over 1.5 million page-views and just under 1,000 comments. In 2009, the blog was listed as a notable entry for the Knight-Batten Awards for Innovations in Journalism.
