   **Note:** Because I'm a scientist first and foremost, most of my data visualizations are made to accompany my research publications. This means that interpreting these figures often requires a bit of scientific context and specialized background knowledge. For example, although biologists studying ant evolution would understand the meaning behind "the posterior probability distribution of speciation rates in Bourke’s symmetric bifurcation model" (see [Figure 2.](https://cpb-us-e1.wpmucdn.com/blogs.cornell.edu/dist/0/8622/files/2016/05/BurchillMoreau_2016_Insectes_Soc.pdf)), any potential employer—aka ***YOU***—might find such data visualizations confusing or dry.
