Let's create together!

Join us as we create modern infographics, one-pagers, executive summaries, pdf reports, videos, dashboards, graphs, maps, and all sorts of other contemporary visual reports. All with the help of easy-to-use and inexpensive (sometimes free) software like Canva, Adobe XD, Tableau Public, and more.

Membership Includes:

  1. Weekly group coaching calls on Zoom.
  2. An always open community Zoom chat group.
  3. All recorded lessons and sessions.
  4. A growing collection of data design recipes (releasing soon).

Membership is currently closed to new members. Public registration opens 4 times a year (early March, June, September, and December). If you're interested in joining us, you can sign up for the waitlist by following this link.

He has gone the extra length to help me with an annual report and gave feedback on an article I wrote. Our weekly sessions are informative and practical and helping me moving forward in my data and design journey! "
