Hi there, I'm Desireé! I come from a physics background, but I've always loved making beautiful things, and data visualization is a perfect marriage of the mathematical / technical with the creative / beautiful. I've been using Tableau since late 2014, and focused exclusively on Data Visualization since summer 2016.
In 2022, I made the career leap into consulting, where I can really focus on making cool visualizations, helping my clients see and understand their data. While the realm of Tableau will likely be my comfort zone for a long time to come, I'm looking to branch out beyond BI tools into harnessing the power and flexibility of JavaScript. In this vein, I've used libraries such as d3.js, Three.js, and Mapbox's GLJS, as well as the Angular framework. I have done some development in React (with and without Typescript) and used the ReCharts library for visualization, but I find that I like the structure and discipline of Angular much, much more than React.
