Introduce Yourself!

[Mstead]

Hi Seattle Alteryx Users,

In an effort for all of us to get to know each other, please introduce yourself using the following questions as a template.

1. What is your name, company, and industry you work in?
2. What are your favorite weekend activities?
3. How do you currently use Alteryx?
4. What areas would you like to grow in?

Hi! I'm not sure if anyone is still around... I saw a banner that the Seattle User Group is back and I joined up. 

I'm Carolyn and work in the SaaS industry in the Finance org. I use Alteryx pretty much every day to analyze data and answer data questions. One of my bigger achievements was taking a process that took 4 hours in Excel due to all the formulas needing to recalculate, and turning it into a workflow that takes 3 minutes. 

I'm working on my Batch Macro skills. I have a good handle on Iterative Macros but still struggle with Batch. I feel like something should work but then it doesn't and it takes me a bit to figure out why. 

My big Alteryx goal is finishing the Advent of Code challenges before December. I just have 2 days left to solve. I'm close but struggling to get over the finish line!

Edit: Also, FWIW, I'd prefer any on site meetings north or east. I'm in Bothell/Mill Creek area so getting to Seattle or Renton area is a bit of a challenge. Obviously it's not just up to me, but throwing it out there :)

Welcome to the Seattle User Group, @Carolyn! You are right. We just reestablished this Group, which was inactive for a while. We are happy you are here! Stay tuned as the UG leaders are already planning the next meeting. 😀
