Eve Washington creates one-of-a-kind, interactive articles, tools and quizzes for The Upshot, a section of The New York Times specializing in explanatory and analytical journalism. Her work includes companions to hit NYT games; quizzes that challenge your understanding of news and history; a crowdsourced map that visualizes how more than 40,000 New Yorkers define where they live; and visualizing literally everything a politician has said about a topic. Fundamentally, Eve likes to challenge the ways that people interact with information, by asking not only what is worth emphasizing in a story, but how that content can be explored creatively. 

Eve graduated from Columbia University in 2022 with an undergraduate degree in computer science, where she ran an investigative student magazine and contributed to research in human-computer interaction. While in college, she interned at Bridge Michigan and Planet Detroit as a data reporter. Eve originally hails from the Detroit area, and is now based in Harlem.
