Claim your profileI'm a skilled writer, researcher and programmer who loves using a broad skillset to explain the world. In my career I've covered state politics, urban affairs, COVID-19 and the economy, among many other topics. I'm equally at home with a giant database or a dusty old history book, and draw on multiple tools to explain complex topics for a busy public. I'm fluent in the R programming language, which I use along with GIS, Illustrator and other tools to analyze and visualize data. For years I've also researched and hosted The Siècle, a podcast covering French history in between Napoleon and World War I. To learn more, visit my website at dhmontgomery.com.
