Adam Gilstrap

Overland Park, KS, United States of America
Adam is a Senior Financial Reporting Specialist at the FDIC (Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation…you’ve heard of us in every banking commercial ever “member FDIC”). He began working for the FDIC in August 2012. Like most new employees he was looking to stay busy his first few weeks. A colleague (for whom he is forever grateful) said “we have this new thing called Tableau…you should try to figure it out…it would be a good feather in your cap. Adam soon realized his true professional love was efficiency and replacing manual with dynamic. Tableau made this all incredibly easy while also making it look incredibly cool. A couple years later Tableau Server arrived at FDIC which motivated Adam to finally learn SQL. With the entire reporting lifecycle at his fingertips from database to inbox, Adam helped Tableau popularity explode at the FDIC. Looking for a way to collaborate and share ideas remotely, Adam started the FDIC TUG (Tableau Users Group) in June 2020. The group quickly became popular and has developed a web of Tableau power users and novices working together at the FDIC. Along the way Adam decided to make his Tableau skillset official by earning a certification. He was discouraged to fail his first attempt to become Tableau Desktop Certified (he swears his dog barked the entire exam). Now more prepared and taking the exam at a testing center (no barking) Adam earned his certification on his second attempt. In February 2022 Adam added a Tableau Data Analyst certification with the Early Bird designation (1 of the first 1000 to pass the exam worldwide). Adam earned a Bachelor’s degree in Accounting and a Master’s in Accounting and Information Systems from the University of Kansas. He lives in suburban Kansas City with his wife, 3 children and dog (still barks a ton). Most of his free time is spent with his family. He loves playing sports with his kids and being in nature. He dabbles in sports cards and collectibles but his main hobby is home projects and fixing things.

Peter is an accomplished business analyst and Tableau developer with an extensive track record of revolutionizing reporting landscapes within the Australian Federal Government. Peter has also been a Tableau Forums Ambassador since 2019. Peters forums journey started much like any other reader – coming to the forums and asking questions. After a period of time this changed to offering advice, and then onto Forums Ambassador. Alongside this journey, Peter continued pushing the boundaries of conventional reporting practices in Federal Government, often being the catalyst for change, spearheading the deployment and construction of Tableau products aligned with the stringent data standards set by the Australian Government. By adhering to principles such as web content accessibility and print publishing standards, Peter not only met regulatory requirements but also elevated the quality of government reporting to a level of industry best practice.

Peter thrives on challenging rusted on norms and putting the work in to deliver superior solutions. Through education and training initiatives, Peter has empowered business units to unearth hidden insights within their data and embrace data literacy, often with firsthand experience of the transformation of managers and executives as they transition from being passive recipients of data to enthusiastic data explorers, enabling them to make informed strategic decisions rather than managing the status quo.

Over the course of more than two decades, Peter has garnered invaluable experience within various government programs and IT roles. This comprehensive perspective has equipped Peter with a unique vantage point to understand the intricate needs and challenges faced by different Government departments. Throughout Peters career, he has left an indelible mark on organizations through his contributions.

Peters long tenure at the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare saw him orchestrating Tableau rollouts, facilitating user group sessions, and championing the release of new versions.

Steve loves to help others solve their problems, particularly complex ones, and whilst he can be found helping out over at StackExchange, Reddit and Qlik, he spends nearly all his time within the Tableau Community. Data has always been a real passion for him, and as both an SQL engineer and analyst, he is always able to satisfy his passions: Investigating, building (data warehouses), transforming, modeling, mining, performance optimisation and analytics; though it wasn’t until late 2008, when he built his first Tableau dashboard, that he was able to see just how powerful interactive analytics could be. Steve builds as dynamic as possible, which usually means parameters, window calcs and CustomSQL and hardly any [distracting] filters.

I have been engaged in supply chain and commercial retail for decades. I always like relevant data collection and analysis, auxiliary management and decision-making. It's amazing to start contacting tableau in 2019! It solves many problems that can not be solved by many tools and software in the past. From basic data cleaning to the interactive display and commercial application of the final dashboard, it realizes a complete closed-loop tool for business management, and has great potential. I personally like the knowledge and tools related to data science. There are many in the market, from Python and R of programming language, basic office access and excel, to database visualization, and then to visual Bi represented by tableau; Each has its own strengths, but tableau is the most promising In tableau forum, I hope to get to know more data fans and enjoy the clear data insight and visual impact it brings. It's a very happy thing.

Hello, my name is Muhammad Azhar. My journey from a small village in Pakistan to the corporate skyscrapers of Dubai has been thrilling, and each step has been guided by a single passion: telling stories with data. Tableau is my faithful companion on this trip as I work as a Business Analytics Specialist. I have been acknowledged as a Tableau Featured Author, and it isn't just a title to me – it's an affirmation of the hours spent mastering this craft. And those Vizzie Award nominations? They serve as reminders that passion, when coupled with dedication, does get noticed. My degree in Computer Engineering from COMSATS University Islamabad served as the foundation for my interest in technology. However, it was during my college years that I became acquainted with the field of data visualization. When I'm not knee-deep in data, you'll probably find me lost in a book. I've got this thing for psychology; understanding how minds tick is just fascinating. Maybe that's why I love data viz so much – it's about connecting the dots and understanding what makes people tick.

I started in retail at Tesco, where I was always known as the “data guy”, providing insights into performance through coloured post-it notes on brown paper. Following that, I moved to easyJet as an accountant, where we had so much data, but we were using Excel as our business information tool. I wanted to create a Treemap visualisation I had seen on the BBC, which ultimately led to us evaluating BI tools and introducing Tableau. I then led the BI programme, developed their World Class centre of excellence, started leading the London Tableau User Group, and was named a Tableau Ambassador. In 2015 I switched to Jones Lang Services (JLL). I was excited by the data journey Corporate Real Estate was on, leading their largest global account team and driving innovation and tool adoption across the BI space whilst delivering over $40m of quantified benefit through BI. In 2020 I was named the global lead for BI, performance management and Innovation, taking the work I had previously done and creating an international community of 150 data practitioners based across nine Countries to maximise our benefits.
