Weronika Gawarska-Tywonek, Data Visualization Designer
Warsaw, Poland

Weronika Gawarska-Tywonek is a Data Visualization Designer. She uses Tableau to translate business requirements into insightful data visualizations. Her process begins with pen and paper to sketch initial concepts, followed by detailed designs in Figma. Tableau then brings these designs to life, enabling the creation of interactive and informative dashboards.

As a leader of the Poland Tableau User Group, Weronika hopes to create a local community where Tableau users can share experiences and best practices. Weronika is also sharing her knowledge through sharing Tableau courses she created driven by her desire to help others navigate their challenges, serving as a jury member for the Make Your Data Speak competition, where she evaluated innovative data visualizations, and writing blog posts about best practices for data visualization, and sharing insights and tips to help others enhance their skills.

Connect with Weronika on Linkedin, Tableau Public, and on her blog.
