My Story
Hello, I’m Cy Persia, the trainer, and driving force behind PivotViz. Throughout my career, I discovered that most professionals don’t need to master every feature of Excel or Power BI; they simply require straightforward guidance, real-world examples, and practical methods to transform chaotic data into valuable insights. During my time in finance, I utilized Excel to automate numerous tasks without extensive coding, focusing on building a solid foundation in effective techniques. This ability to save time and clearly understand my processes was immensely empowering, providing me with confidence, clarity, and control over my work. That’s the experience I aim to share through PivotViz—empowering like you to gain confidence and control with data, streamline reporting, and provide insights that genuinely facilitate clear decision-making.
