Laura Jael Kurtzberg is a data visualization specialist, cartographer, and a news applications developer with a particular interest in environmental stories. Laura has worked at the intersection of data journalism and design with organizations like InfoAmazonia, Ambiental Media, WLRN Public Media, and Mongabay.
