In the shadowy realm of raw data, Carlos Barboza emerges as a maverick data storyteller - part analyst, part „visual alchemist“.

A digital cartographer of insights, he navigates the complex terrain of business intelligence with the precision of a master strategist and the creativity of an artist.

A Microsoft MVP with a distinctive approach, transforms raw data into narratives that don't just inform but captivate and illuminate the hidden truths within complex information landscapes.

Graduating Cum Laude with a Bachelor's in Economics & Finance, Carlos has cultivated a decade-long reputation as a "guerrilla data analyst" who operates at the cutting edge of business intelligence. His expertise transcends traditional analysis, blending technical mastery with an almost intuitive ability to craft interactive visualizations that turn complex datasets into compelling visual stories.

As an independent business data consultant, Carlos specializes in architecting robust, scalable data models using Excel and Power BI. His approach is surgical - meticulously integrating data from diverse sources, optimizing performance, and designing visualizations that do more than display information; they reveal valuable business insights.

Beyond technical mastery, Carlos embodies the philosophy that data is more than numbers - it's a language waiting to be decoded. His dashboards and reports are not just presentations, but narrative journeys that transform complex information into clear, visual insights.

Carlos Conference Topic:

Seeing Data through Interactive Charts with Excel & Power BI, real World examples never seen.

An engaging demonstration of the immense capability of seeing data interactively through forms (charts, graphs, plots, maps) for understanding what it is trying to tell us and for gaining a rich knowledge on what lies on a repository of facts, registries, observations, events.

When a repository of data is visualized, it could demonstrate so much information at a glance that it’s hard to shut down and forget what has been viewed. On this presentation, using tools like Excel and Power BI, let’s see real examples of putting data into graphical forms to detect patterns, trends, relationships along with variations, outliers, comparisons, clustering, and that, when all these are complementing each other visually, we could help our eye and brains see the insights from data.
