Hi , I'm Ana Elena Azpúrua


I love reporting and creating data-driven stories, including maps, charts, and interactives. I'm a bilingual reporter with over a decade of experience covering the Latino community in the USA. I'm passionate about visual storytelling that provides context, explains complex issues, and reveals hidden patterns.

These projects were made as part of a multidisciplinary team. The tags specify my contribution to each piece.
