After 17 years of analytics and data viz (and #azure AI lately) consulting for large firms I am going out on my own! Let me know if anyone would like to work/partner together! Excited to move into this new journey and grow even further! #datavisualization #PowerBI #Tableau

Please check out this demo on making a simple nested chart with the Charticulator visual. It includes a good hack to temporarily provide all the data while you create the nested chart. #PowerBI #Charticulator youtu.be/cLiZpifYF4A

Inspired by Jeffrey Shaffer @HighVizAbility and Nick Snapp @Nsnapp, I decided to recreate all great bar chart variations using #Charticulator and #PowerBI. dataplusscience.com/BarHoppi… teapawt.org/Nsnapp/status/10952272…
Attempted to recreate @HighVizAbility great "Bar Hopping" blog post example in #charticulator and #PowerBI dataplusscience.com/BarHoppi… .CHART files can be found here for you to use 1drv.ms/f/s!AqrbpKVUQ0Yhs4ol…

I gotta say I was hesitant at first to start using the #charticulator visual in #PowerBI and thought I would just stick to local app. Wow! Even for a preview it works well! I didn't realize how much time I'd be saving just developing in PBI. Way to go team! @zBritva @bongshin

The ability to bounce back and forth from visual changes to data changes quickly is awesome! 80% of data visualization is data manipulation...and this makes it so much nicer!

A Design mock had a "KPI Carousel" at the top of the dashboard. I thought...I bet you could do this in #PowerBI leveraging a table and SVG. Color formatting works based off targets as well! You can easily make it vertical.

What great is instead of 15 separate KPIs created with 15 visuals+. This is just 15 measures in one visual. so performance is good!

Using @MSPowerBI with direct query to @databricks. Love it! But the cluster keeps starting back up after auto shutdown when the PBI report is published to the PBI service. My assumption is unless someone is actively using the report the cluster should shutdown and stay off? Help!

I have waited years for this to come (back?)...and its hopefully here next month. Will make life easier and increase confidence with being able to utilize Power BI as a "Data viz tool"! #PowerBI #smallmultiples

#PowerBI is 80% data and 20% visualization. #Tableau is 80% visualization and 20% data. Manage your expectations accordingly.

Now if only there was a way to couple this to a tool like #PowerBI

Used #PowerBI to extract #Amazon X-ray data from the browser for my favorite movie Aliens. Mocked up screen time data for each character and relationship data. Finally visualized in #charticulator and #PowerBI. @MSPowerBI y'all make it too easy :)
