I first heard Ali's story when she spoke at a Women in Data DMV event. She's so insightful and I learned so much from reading her book, Chart Spark.

Loved this episode so much! I'm a former Interior and Graphic Designer transitioning into data and I will absolutely be checking out Alli's book and LinkedIn! Thank you Avery and Alli for the great conversation centered around data visualization! 😍
