Speaking
Book me to speakI Can Tell AI Built Your Dashboard
AI can put a dashboard on the screen in minutes, and most of the time you can tell which ones it built. This session walks through the specific tells, why they cost you credibility with the people reading your work, and how to use these tools without shipping something that looks like nobody thought about it.

Hey, I am Sekou.
I have spent over a decade in data, and most of that time teaching it to somebody. I run Royal Blue Analytics out of Nashville, lead the Power BI user group here, and record Ten Minute Tuesday, where practitioners get six questions and ten minutes to tell me how they actually got where they are.
Outside of that: family, church, and far too many opinions about basketball.
