This Friday, March 6th, TechSoup's NonProfit Commons in Second Life will feature Nika Aleksejeva, from Infogr.am, and a discussion on how you can use data as a compelling way of telling social good stories.
Nika is a passionate data storyteller currently working at Infogr.am, a popular data visualization service. She is in charge of Infogram.org, the company's non-profit arm which aims to enhance data literacy while bringing the power of data visualization to local communities worldwide. Nika comes from a journalism background - her work involved writing on business topics and making data-driven stories about energy, global economic trends and education. Seeing the future in digital journalism, she continues to work and share the knowledge that helps to develop new communication forms.
