Instructors
Hello! My name is Ben Young. My background is in data analytics and visualization, especially in the context of business strategy. I've worked in multiple industries (insurance, sales, non-profit, etc.) and across every job, analysis, and deliverable, there has been a constant need for data and the ability to interpret it. Tableau is my tool of choice, one that I've spent four years mastering, earning multiple professional certifications and tutoring hundreds of students in person and online. To top it all off, I recently completed an MBA at Oxford University, adding a high-level business perspective and context to my work. I look forward to working with you to take your Tableau skills to the next level!
