How an Introvert Took the Stage - and Won Iron Viz

In this episode, I sit down in person with Will Sutton, the 2022 Iron Viz Champion, Tableau Visionary, and data consultant with The Information Lab. We caught up right after Tableau Conference 2025 in San Diego to talk about his inspiring journey—from introvert to Iron Viz winner.

Will opens up about how stepping into the Iron Viz spotlight helped him break out of his shell and how that one bold move unlocked opportunities he never expected—at exactly the time he needed them most.

This episode is a powerful reminder of what can happen when you take a shot—even when you're unsure of the outcome. Sometimes, saying yes to a single opportunity can change everything.
