hi, i'm paroma soni
I'm a data and graphics journalist, writer, and videographer. I currently work at POLITICO, previously for FiveThirtyEight, Columbia Journalism Review, BuzzFeed India, and Slate
(and freelanced for some others). I'm interested in stories at the intersections of politics, economy and social justice – stories that reveal how systems fail people.
Check out some of my best work below, or read all the stuff I've written and the graphics I've made.

POLITICO
Thousands of carve-outs and caveats are weakening Trump’s emergency tariffs

POLITICO
Chinese goods now comprise less than 10 percent of U.S. imports.
POLITICO
In the swing states, turnout in the major cities trailed the rest of the state. The drops weren’t the same across neighborhoods, though.
