How Did You Become a Grants Manager?

A gentleman in the audience that day who was tasked with filling one of the speaker's lots for an upcoming grants managers conference. He reached out to say, hey, do you want to come speak to this other group? And it was in seattle, which is where i grew up. So it was a neat a fortuitous circumstance. It ended up being this self reinforcing cycle where i would spend some time on the aesthetics and get recognition for that,. Then made me want to spend more time on the aesthetically-pleasing data visualizations.
