John is a data journalist with a wealth of experience writing news stories and producing data-visualisations for national newspapers including The Guardian and The Daily Telegraph. He is currently studying for an MA in Interactive Journalism at City University, London, but is available for full- and part-time work owing to the flexible nature of the course.
Financial journalism is another of John’s passions, and his work in this discipline has appeared in the finance sections of both The Daily Telegraph and Yahoo! News.
John has a broad journalistic background, having written for various specialist data journalism websites as well as the aforementioned national titles. He also edited Palatinate, Durham University’s student newspaper.
His interest in data journalism was piqued during an initial six week spell with The Guardian, although the heavily analytical nature of his BSc in Geography had sewn the seeds and helped him develop a range of skills in statistical analysis and mapping.
