Uriel
Hello! I’m Uriel Santa Cruz, the Data Visualization Specialist focused on turning movie data into meaningful stories. My role in this project was to ensure that every visualization was clear, accurate, and engaging. I designed charts that helped my teammates and me explore insights about gender disparity in the film industry while keeping the visuals appealing and easy to interpret. My favorite movie is Back to the Future, a true classic with some of the best references in Hollywood!
