Brian W. Dew
Data Analyst
I build data tools and visualizations for macroeconomic research. I've worked for the Center for Economic and Policy Research and the International Monetary Fund.
Past projects include internal IMF tools for tracking statistical coverage across member countries, an emerging markets finance dashboard, economic chartbooks, and contributions to open-source Census microdata projects.
I hold a master's in economics from American University, and a bachelor's degree from George Washington University.
