To recognize new and consistent Tableau contributors—we’re excited to have a section within the weekly DataFam Roundup called the Tableau Community Highlight. Find out how to get involved.
Lucia Stefanuto, Data Visualization Specialist
Buenos Aires, Argentina
Lucia Stefanuto is a Data Visualization Specialist. She primarily uses Tableau Desktop for both personal and professional projects, and later publishes her vizzes to Tableau Public. Lucia is involved with Communidatos and has attended the London Tableau User Group, she also participates in community projects such as Workout Wednesday and publishes videos on her YouTube channel.
Curious to understand how the consumer brain works, Lucia studied marketing in college. When taking courses about neuroscience, she gained a deeper understanding of how our brain influences the decisions we think are rational and how data should be analyzed. Now, Lucia tries to apply her neuroscience knowledge to dashboard design, making her creations simple and easy to understand by anyone with any level of data literacy. She is mindful of how the user experience, colors, distribution, and overall design impact the visualization.
Connect with Lucia on Linkedin, X, and Tableau Public.
