Update: I'm back at The Post –I've been rehired. I keep working on econ stuff, also a bit of politics.

The Post was foolish enough to unleash a bevy of the world’s most talented multi-disciplinary journalists out there for their competition to scoop up. These are some of the most hard working and skilled people I know. Save this one and reshare it please! 📊

News: I was cut yesterday in a newsroom-wide layoff affecting 300+ staff at The Washington Post. I spent the last decade leading and building the award-winning Graphics team. I'll miss them. I'm now exploring senior graphics, cartography, or leadership roles. Intros welcome. timmeko.com

I'm not very active here, but given the news: I'm one of the hundreds of reporters laid off from the Post. I worked as a graphics reporter, mostly covering the U.S economy and politics. My portfolio: www.lmelgar.me
