This is a presentation I put together for a talk I gave a while back on data visualisation and storytelling in the context of data science and analytics. The content was a produced from a mix of my own experience in industry and teaching at various schools and also from the work of Edward Tufte, Nathan Yau, Angela Zoss, Peter Beshai, Mike Bostock, among others. I wanted to highlight some basic concepts of what data visualisation is and what are some of the fundamental steps I believe are important in creating analytical dashboards and visualisations. It also contains a bunch of visualisation examples that I find interesting in telling a story with data.

These are the slides from my second talk at Academy Xi on How to Get Started in Data Science and Analytics given on 3 Oct 2018. On the day, I had the pleasure of having Joel Stein from Precision Sourcing and his team presenting with me once again. And this time I had the absolute pleasure of having Con Georgelos also present and talking with me on the day. Also, big thank you to Hazel Cooper and Byron Allen for providing valuable input during the talk and also in the content. Finally, thank you yo Academy Xi for hosting us.
