dataviz mini-workshops
There is so much to learn in dataviz!
Data Visualisation is a field as awesome as it is vast.
Designing good dataviz requires knowledge of technology, communication and design principles, not to mention domain knowledge! It can get overwhelming fast!
My dataviz mini-workshops are sharp, 60-minute sessions packed to the brim with relevant content, zooming into one specific topic.
They are designed to help you quickly level up your dataviz practice with content relevant to where you are in your dataviz journey.
how does it work?
Check below to see which mini-workshop themes are available. Choose the one that speaks to your team's needs right now.
Get in touch, and we'll agree on content and dates. I'll then prepare my 60-minute session to deliver to your team.
The sessions include a swift Q&A at the end. You'll also have takeaway materials to complement the lessons.
who is it for?
Teams working with data visualisation, information design, or that recently found themselves having to communicate data, but are a bit at a loss.
The sessions work best for teams with tight time allocation, and clear objectives on what they need to learn.
If you see a theme below that seems like exactly what you need, at the right time, you might be my perfect audience. The structure of the sessions also work for budget-conscious teams. Sometimes it is best to go bite-sized than get more than you can chew.
who is it not for?
The sessions assume you and your team have a basic understanding of why you need to create data visualisations. You might not be sure how to approach a specific subject, but you have at least tried your hand at creating a couple of charts here and there.
The sessions are 100% virtual. No in-person engagements are available at this stage.
The mini-workshops are not focused on any particular technology stack. If you need step-by-step guidance on how to do something in Tableau or Power BI, for example, these are not for you.

an intro to style guides for data displays
Style guides aren't here to make your dashboard look pretty! But they can surely help you ensure that your data displays are polished, professional, consistent and accessible to your audience!
In this mini-workshop you'll learn why style guides matter, how they can help you develop better data displays and get a glimpse of the first steps you need to get started!
mapping user journeys in your data design process
User Journey Maps help developers clarify requirements from the start, reducing the need for assumptions and helping clarify your audience's context and purpose.
In this mini-workshop, you'll learn what User Journey Maps are and how to use one to interview your audience and better understand how they use data in their day-to-day.
wireframing techniques for data display development
Wireframing techniques can help you reduce the back-and-forth in design decisions and feedback when developing complex data products like dashboards. And the good news is that you don't need fancy software to get started!
Bring out the Post-Its! In this mini-workshop, I'll share low-tech wireframing methods to help you establish, clarify, and validate your design decisions before you start developing.
