Jay Farias

Analytics Strategist

When he’s not trying to break Tableau, Jay enjoys rock climbing, ashtanga yoga, reading science fiction and philosophy, and pretty much anything having to do with pushing the limits of mind and body.

"Trust the process, but if it seems too hard, then you probably need a new process."
