Adam Korengold, Analytics Lead
Virginia, USA
Adam Korengold is the Analytics Lead at the National Library of Medicine and part-time faculty at the Maryland Institute College of Art. He advocates for visualization as a tool for gaining analytics insights and enjoys Tableau to dive deeper into his interests in baseball and painting.
As a long time avid baseball fan, Adam began baseball-related data visualization at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic which led him to exploring many different niches within the topic area. In talking with others, Adam learned more about the growing role of women in baseball: from playing, to managing teams, to working in the sport. He translated these learnings to his visualizations as he saw that not only was there a lack of statistics and visualizations about the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League, there was no online database either; so he created one based on the published hard copy record book.
Using Tableau has also opened a door for Adam to combine data visualization with his passion for painting. In the last year, he has merged these interests by creating his own baseball cards that create a visual narrative both in painting and by revisiting the traditional back of the baseball card in a visual way.
Connect with Adam on Linkedin, Tableau Public, Mastodon, through the Analytics and Healthcare Tableau User Groups, and on his blog, “Section 514.”
