Kelsey Taylor uses infographics as a way to communicate data and information by creating a story that delivers a message or a call to action. As a child, she played a lot of games. She was particularly interested in games where she could explore the world on a map. She was also interested in design. In 2019, Kelsey was awarded a National Geographic grant which will give her the opportunity to visit several U.S. National Parks and study how they’ve been changing over the last 200 years. Because these parks are protected areas, they should be mostly unaffected. Sadly, we know that this is not true. With the grant, she hopes to use her skills in geography and cartography to create data-driven visuals that show how climate changeis affecting these protected areas.
