[ksalama]

Hey everyone. My name is Khabab Salama and I work in advertising. I work for an agency called Quigley-Simpson in West LA. Last movie I saw was Furious 7 (I don't go to movies too often) I thought it was OK and I was with some good friends, so it was nice. The tool that represents me the most would have to be the "Block Until Done." I feel like it's a dance move or something and therefore, it just moves me. (=

Hi Everyone! My name is Bret Cullinan and I am an Information Management and Analytics consultant with Slalom. The last movie I saw was The Force Awakens - huge Star Wars nerd here so obviously I loved it. The Alteryx tool that represents me the most is probably Select, because I am constantly trying to strip out unnecessary information to separate the signal from the noise. Removing extraneous concepts or data floating around what I am actually trying to solve for is always my first step - you can imagine what my house looks like!

Hi All- my name is Katrina Cain and I am also an Information Management and Analytics consultant with Slalom!  The last movie I went to was Allegiant-- I'm a big fan of reading book series and seeing them brought to life on screen, but I have to admit that this one was entertaining enough, but mostly a let down.  My favorite tool is probably the Multi-Row Formula-- I LOVE logic and equations, but this one has gotten me out of quite a few pickles and really sets Alteryx apart from some other tools I've used

This is basically a repeat of what I put in the OC User Group (I live/work close to both).

Hi! I'm Cathy Bridges, I work in automotive manufacturing. The last movie I went to was The Force Awakens (for the 6th time - aiming for 7!). It was and is A.MA.ZING!

I would say the formula tool best represents me, because it's so versatile and it's taking information in, processing it, and sending it back out in a more useful/helpful way. My brain does that a lot in life. (What a creative question!)

[Scraps822]

I'm Alberto... I'm in media. I do research

Hmm... last movie was a Netflix one called War Machine. I liked it. Brad Pitt was character in that one.

Alteryx has been more of a time saver. I want to learn different aspects of the tool over just creating workflows.

1. Hello Everyone, my name is Behring Bautista and I'm on the Financial Services field.
2. The last movie I have seen is "War for the Planets of the Apes", 8.5/10  ;-) Almost perfect. (Big fan of the franchise)
3. This one is a hard one! I will go with the R tool.
