Waleed Elhardallou, Founder of EventsTags
Stockholm, Sweden
Waleed Elhardallou is the Founder of EventsTags, a startup that aims to be a central hub for sharing insights about tech and business events in Sweden. While his background is in electrical engineering, his passion for digital marketing and web development led Waleed to self-learn Tableau. His journey with the tool started with the Tableau website and Trailblazer platform, then he attended Tableau and Salesforce events in Stockholm. Waleed solidified his skills with YouTube tutorials, Udemy courses, and tackling real-world problems from different industries.
As leader of the Stockholm Tableau User Group, Waleed recalls initially being drawn to the opportunity because of the scope for continuous learning and being surrounded by talented and passionate people. Waleed believes in the power of community and supportive environments and being a part of the Tableau community has allowed him to grow in his skills and connect with other Community Leaders. In addition to being involved in the Stockholm User Group, Waleed also contributes through his blog, where he documents his Tableau journey and insights.
Connect with Waleed on Linkedin, Tableau Public, and on his blog.
