Disney

All data has a story to tell. Sometimes it's just easier to find than others. Disney data gives us a really relatable and fun example of complex data used to solve difficult problems with solutions that are impactful for many families and Disney-loving adults. So we'll talk about all of that awesome Disney data and how to use it to make your vacation less expensive, less crowded, and more satisfactory. But we'll also use it as a framework for how to get better at data storytelling in general. Find a problem, ask some questions, find the data to answer those questions, and then let the answers inspire you to get curious and dig deeper!
