About Nissim

Hi! I’m a graduate student in NYU’s Applied Urban Science and Informatics program, where I focus on using data science to tackle climate and urban resilience challenges. I’m passionate about designing public interest technologies—tools that translate complex data into accessible, actionable insights for communities and policymakers. My current work focuses on developing transparent and user-friendly dashboards that effectively visualize environmental and infrastructure data to support climate adaptation.
