#datafam It has been a long time since I posted something but I'm back! For our own internal #ironviz competition I used the #MakeoverMonday dataset to visualize what % of Britons think kidult hobbies and practices are for children.

Check it out: shorturl.at/G5cfu!

Having been a qualifier judge for a few years, I thought I’d enter #Tableau #IronViz this year!

High Times, High Companions, and High Spirits is my (very high level) story about the changing tastes of cocktails.

I leant into my strengths and drew everything with map layers too!

Hi #datafam!!
Here's my #dataviz for #ironviz, Beyond the Bowl: Mapping the Instant Noodles Universe. I looked into the history of instant noodles, as well as their origins and global demand rankings.
It was a last-minute idea, but I'm delighted I got it done!

Haven't quite figured out why I've made it, but i like.

I hope I'm not alone in feeling deflated at the theme for this year's Tableau #IronViz. I was so pumped for it, but this seems... boring. Please someone in the #DataFam tell me I'm not alone.

Unfinished Vizness Iron Viz Tip #3 🍳 Don’t Overcook Your Data
Pick a dataset that fits the theme, find the story, then stop stirring. Too many ingredients and you’ll burn your time. You’ve got a month, not a Michelin kitchen.
