BU Spark! Fall 2022 TPM Projects

My first semester as a techincal project manager, I was helping to manage student teams for the Boston University Justice Media Co-lab class. These teams bridge a gap between journalism students, and data science students to produce article for news publishers in the Boston area. Getting my first exposure to a project mangement role showed me how beneficial it is to have the techincal expertise in understanding the capabilities of a team. Outlined below are the companies and topics that I was apart of. (Underlined Projects link to the published articles!)

GBH - Police OT Spending

Boston Globe x Emncipator - Redlined 311 calls and redlined communities

WBUR - Court Cases

DIG Boston - Police Overtime

OSHA Fines
