Data X Visualization X Communication = Success

The quality of your data analysis is only as good as the action you take on it. A 2x author (data science/R and Tableau), an award-winning keynote speaker, Ashutosh R. Nandeshwar, for more than 14 years, has envisioned and built action-orientated analytical solutions supporting executive decision-making. His storytelling abilities inspire teams and audiences -- technical and non-technical alike, and set Ashutosh memorably apart from the other data science experts.

He earned a Ph.D., MS, and BEng in industrial engineering with an emphasis on artificial intelligence. Now, Ashutosh is leading the data science, reporting, and prospect development teams of the University of Southern California, and there he is completing a master's degree in design thinking.

In his spare time, he creates content to help others learn data science, AI, data visualization, and speaking on this site, or he breaks pallets apart for woodworking.
