How I Went from High-Fashion Showroom Manager to Data & Tech Client Manager
Ever since I was a little girl, I was determined to live in New York City. The buildings, the lights, the shows … but I also think the grit that one had to have in order to live there drew me to The Big Apple. I always thought to myself, as Frank Sinatra eloquently sang, […]

Webinar Replay: Designing Efficient Tableau Dashboards
We love working in Tableau, so it was a great privilege to support them when they approached us and asked, “Write down everything you know.” The outline of the idea was to take a previously written whitepaper from Alan Eldridge and update it to support all of the platform’s subsequent updates.

How I Went from Music Theorist to Client Manager
Most of my earliest memories involve music: singing along as my mom practiced hymns for our church on the piano, putting a pillow over my head in a feeble attempt to drown out the sound of my dad’s rock band in the garage and smiling and laughing as my grandfather performed cowboy songs for my […]
