The Graphic Truth

The Graphic Truth is GZERO Media’s daily data-driven visual, a quick and sharp way to explain complex global stories through charts and infographics.

I lead the design direction for the series, ensuring every piece is clear, accurate, and instantly recognizable as part of the brand. That means creating original charts and infographics, developing reusable templates, and evolving the visual style so it stays fresh without losing consistency.

The pace is relentless, with some graphics turned around in a matter of hours to match the news cycle, and the topics range from geopolitics to pop culture. My job is to make sure every Graphic Truth not only communicates the data but also tells the story in a way that works for TV, web, and social audiences.

From layout decisions to data visualization choices, I am involved in every stage, collaborating with editors, fact-checkers, and writers.
