About

Rob Taylor (The Data Taylor)

15+ years in data. Senior Analytics Specialist at JLL on the Rolls-Royce account. 2x Tableau Ambassador. 8x Viz of the Day. Iron Viz Top 10. Alteryx die-hard. And yes, I named my site after a sewing pun.

I've spent my career automating the boring stuff so people can focus on the interesting stuff. If there's a manual process, there's almost certainly a better way

When I'm not solving complex data problems for some of the world's most prestigious organisations, I'm building vizzes that are just... fun. Maps with too many layers. Calculated fields nobody asked for. Dashboards about John Wick kill counts and All Blacks win rates.

This site is where I write up what I know, show what I've built, and occasionally share strong opinions about Alteryx layout conventions.
