    My name's <strong>Nicolas Kayser-Bril </strong>and I like to understand how things work.
  </p>
  <p>
    To do so, I use data. I crunch, grind, chew and squeeze numbers to extract meaning and tell stories. That's called data-driven journalism and I'm proud to have been one of the first ones to practice it in Europe.
  </p>
  <p>
    I co-founded and managed <a href="http://jplusplus.org" target="_blank">Journalism++</a> from 2011 to 2017. Before that, I was head of datajournalism at <a target="_blank" href="http://owni.fr">Owni</a>.

    Drop me a line if you need help on a data-driven project of any kind or if you need a public speaker or a stand-up comedian to talk about data, the internet or journalism.
