Rishabh Bahuguna, Freelance Analyst
Uttarakhand, India

Rishabh Bahuguna is a Freelance Analyst who began using Tableau about a year ago. After attending a webinar focused on industry-oriented use cases, Rishabh was excited to try out the tool for himself. He is now involved in the Tableau Community in a variety of ways: Tableau User Groups, Community Projects, Tableau Forums, and sharing his knowledge on social media.

On Linkedin, Rishabh regularly shares content and events focused on new Tableau users. He considers the tutorials and personal experiences he shares beneficial for him too as they serve as learning documentation. Given his experience and interest in a teaching role in the community, Rishabh also recently served as a speaker at the Jaipur Tableau User Group where he covered Tableau basics and the first steps to exploring the breadth of resources available to new learners.

Connect with Rishabh on Linkedin, X, and Tableau Public.
