In the months following, Christopher was able to utilize Tableau during his international consulting internship and was later inducted into the first Tableau Student Ambassador Program. Since then, he has created and taught the Fundamentals of Tableau, a college accredited class, where he teaches students of all majors the fundamentals of Tableau while exploring its use cases in various industries.
