Maria Elisa Londono utilizes Tableau for both professional endeavors and personal growth, aiming to expand her creative boundaries and explore data visualization as a non-designer. She credits a lot of the development in her Tableau journey to support provided by other members of the DataFam through mentorship and content.

Currently, Maria Elisa engages with the Tableau Community via LinkedIn, where she shares content and interacts with the DataFam, and by participating in community projects like Makeover Monday. She values the supportive environment of the community, which fosters collaboration over competition and makes learning accessible, particularly for newcomers. She's also involved with the Tableau + Maps User Group due to her interest in maps and data visualization, and enjoys connecting with others who share this same passion for spatial storytelling.

Connect with Maria on Linkedin and Tableau Public.
