Jacob Rothemund, Data Visualization Specialist at Datacom
Sydney, Australia
Jacob Rothemund is a Data Visualization Specialist at Datacom. He is involved in many areas of the Tableau Community: staying active on the Tableau Forums, participating in Community Projects such as Workout Wednesday, participating in Tableau User Groups, publishing content on Tableau Public and sharing tips and tricks on X and Linkedin.
Early in his Tableau journey, Jacob attributes a lot of his learning to trial and error and online tutorials but joining Tableau User Groups, and leveraging content on social media, blogs, and Tableau Public helped him increase his knowledge level exponentially in a short period of time.
One of Jacob’s focuses now is sharing his knowledge on X and Linkedin. He finds that this is an easy way to contribute tips and ideas and build connections. Jacob also engages on the Tableau subreddit by answering questions and interacting with the community there. Most recently, he also presented to the Tableau Community at Vizit Sydney.
Connect with Jacob on Linkedin, X, and Tableau Public.
