Community Highlight
To recognize new and consistent Tableau contributors—we’re excited to have a section within the weekly DataFam Roundup called the Tableau Community Highlight. Find out how to get involved.
Flavio Matos, Data Analytics Consultant
London, United Kingdom
Flavio Matos is a Data Analytics Consultant originally from Brazil, who now lives and works in the London area. Flavio appreciates the Tableau community’s collaborative spirit and that there is always guidance available when it is needed. He got more involved in the community when he started writing LinkedIn articles to share what he was learning and help others who were on the same learning journey with Tableau.
At the London and New York City Tableau User Groups, Flavio has had the opportunity to present on the power of dashboard translation to make insights more global, and on how bilingual dashboards can improve accessibility. A highlight for him was winning "Viz of the Day" with his Periodic Table of Wine viz and being invited to create a Workout Wednesday challenge, which meant a lot to him because Workout Wednesday challenges were instrumental to his learning early in his Tableau journey. In his free time, Flavio works on pro bono Tableau projects with NGOs worldwide, and some of his work was even showcased at the UN Summit in New York City last year.
Connect with Flavio on Linkedin, Tableau Public, and on his blog.
