I have a new hobby — designing crossword puzzles. For the past year, Iʻve been on a hiatus from map-making. I got a new job, and in my downtime I started experimenting as a “crossword constructor.” I had my first published puzzle in the NYT in February. My second is out today.

I had a go at making some #NFL drive charts! I'm really pleased with how they turned out. I wanted to go with something that felt a bit more minimal (I am forever inspired by @barelymaps.bsky.social) and believe it or not, this was the more minimal version... #SportsAnalytics #DataViz #DataFam
I look at the drive charts of the 2021 divisional round matchup probably once a month. Let's hope for a game like this. #Chiefs #Bills #nflverse
