Private Workshops

Learn the fundamentals of data visualization design with a focus on designing effective explanatory graphics using health data and unpacking some of the nuances and ethical challenges of working with health information.

Then, we’ll apply those principles in practice through rapid small group critiques and redesigns to put your new knowledge into practice.

Workshops can be customized for each client to consider your audiences, data, and unique data visualization challenges. Whether you have 2 hours or 2 days for your team to build their chart design skills, you’ll be creating more meaningful data visualizations.

Snackable Learning

Today we’re used to short format content, and how we learn new skills is no different.

Instead of asking team members to take a day or more away from their work for a heads down workshop, these ‘snackable learning’ series focus on learning one immediately applicable design skill each week on chart design, slide design, or data storytelling.

Short format, virtual sessions allow more team members to participate. Customizing sessions with your data makes the sessions relatable. And each session includes a big idea and a practical application, so you can use the information in your next presentation or report.

“Amanda’s work is technically brilliant, on time, on budget, beautiful, and clear, but equally important, she's a true thought partner.

She helped our team comb through the most compelling data we had, think through the stories we were trying to tell, figure out how to tell them most effectively for our audience. She also taught us a LOT about data visualization overall, helping distill her years of experience into lessons along the way.”

— Lauren Brody Smith, The Fifth Trimester

The future is clear: technical skill will fade as the gatekeeper of complex data visualization. This is a good thing: we need more people invested in the craft and creation of visuals that help us understand a complex world.
