Gloria de Waal-Montgomery

Having spent a few years investigating and reporting international human rights and humanitarian law violations in the Middle East and Asia, Gloria realised the importance of data visualisation in creating compelling stories, educating audiences and spotting and tracking patterns of violations to promote justice and accountability. Lacking the tools in how to do this, and in search of a new challenge, Gloria joined the Information Lab in the hope of developing a better understanding of the data world she inhabits. 

Gloria’s heart is never far from sunnier climates and a pair of trainers. In her spare time, you’ll find her bouldering, falling of her skateboard and working to promote and defend human rights in Tibet.

This blog post will examine adjustable reference lines in Tableau. While there are many ways to add reference lines in Tableau, using a parameter to control the reference line provides a great way for end users to interact with your dashboard by adding a degree of flexibility

Today I sat an exam I wasn’t ready for, and it was the best thing I could have done
I’m a fan of pushing myself to do things that make me feel uncomfortable and sitting the Alteryx exam after 3 days at the Data School seemed like the perfect way to do that
