Hi. I’m Frank Hangler, a data designer and developer living in Vancouver, Canada.
I am founder of Plot + Scatter, a data communication company specializing in custom-built web-based data visualizations.
In 2013-14, I studied at the Oxford Internet Institute at the University of Oxford, earning a Master’s of Science in the Social Science of the Internet (what a mouthful!). We studied the various social impacts of this relatively new technology — though really, we only scratched the surface. It was a fantastic year that grew my interest in data (Big, Open, and otherwise!), visualization, and smart cities.
Before that, I worked at TELUS for several years, building (mostly internal) web applications. I was a member of a development team working with new technologies. Most of my projects were tools to improve internal collaboration.
