Can data visualization be a digital souvenir? 🏃♂️
Running is where I find my "disconnect." I recently hit a goal I'm proud of ✨my first 10km✨ and I wanted to turn that raw data into a digital souvenir.
I’m obsessed with how micrographics are moving from physical clothing tags into the digital world. My goal was to move beyond just 'tracking stats' and start 'designing achievements' through a micrographic lens.
👉What's a personal milestone you’ve hit lately that deserves to be turned into a piece of art?
Congrats on your first 10K!!! 🔥
Next month marks a year of me going to the gym consistently (after many failed attempts 😅). Tracking the data was honestly the game changer. So yes ! Definitely a great souvenir!
Thanks so much! And huge congrats on that year of consistency, that's the real win. 🏆 Data definitely changes the mindset. Keep it up!
well done love the work
Thanks Zaoui!
you are welcome 🙌
this is premium worrk
Thank you! Glad you liked it!
This is exactly what data visualization can be when it is personal. The route trace overlaid on your actual shoe mid-stride with all the performance metrics packed into that dark grid layout is stunning. Congrats on the first 10K too. Turning that personal record into something this beautiful is worth every bit of the effort.
Appreciate it! 🫶 I wanted to make sure the data didn't feel 'pasted on' but part of the movement itself. Achieving that 10K felt like the perfect excuse to push the layout. Thanks for noticing the details! 😁
wow
⚡️🙏
Congrats for both achievements!
Double thanks! 😁
It looks amazing
Thank you Arman!
This is what tech is about. Love that you turned a mundane act into art.
Exactly! That’s the goal, finding the beauty in the numbers. Thanks for the kind words.
Anytime Jere

runner apps became art at this point, love it!
Totally! Why not make them look as intense as the run feels?

Loved the concept of ‘designing achievements’ instead of just visualizing data. what sparked that shift for you?
Thanks! Making data feel like progress makes it more human 😊
Appreciate it! 🙌

Thank Juan! 😊😊😊
Congrats!
It’s always great to see visually appealing data presentations
Yess! It keeps me motivated 🚀
This is such a powerful way to turn raw data into emotional storytelling. When performance data becomes a visual narrative, it creates real connection — love this direction.
Thank bulbul! Yes! When you can see raw data in something emotional, it keeps you motivated
Exactly — when data becomes something you can feel, not just measure, it changes the whole experience. That emotional layer makes consistency so much easier.
🙌
This is so clean 🔥

Really strong mark.
The gradient treatment + rounded geometry gives it a very modern SaaS feel.
Project Title:
Sales Performance Dashboard Using Power BI
Description Example:
Designed an interactive Power BI dashboard to track sales performance, revenue trends and monthly KPIs. Automated data transformation using Power Query and built dynamic Excel models for reporting accuracy.
Tools Used:
• Microsoft Excel
• Power Query
• Power BI
Most dashboards fail before they are even built.
Not because of bad charts.
Not because of wrong formulas.
Because the data underneath is structurally broken.
Here’s what I see often in small businesses:
• Dates stored as text
• Multiple columns for the same metric
• Inconsistent naming (Revenue / Sales / Total Sales)
• Manual copy-paste every week
• No clear data flow
Then they ask:
“Why doesn’t this dashboard update properly?”
A dashboard is just a mirror.
If the data structure is messy, the reflection will be distorted.
Before I build any report, I focus on 3 things:
Standardized column logic
Single source of truth
Repeatable data flow (no manual dependency)
Clean structure → Reliable metrics → Better decisions.
If your reporting feels fragile, the issue usually isn’t Excel.
It’s the foundation.
Completely agree. Dashboards amplify whatever foundation they sit on — messy data → misleading clarity. Standardization and single source of truth are massively underrated.
