About Jack

I’m Jack Peng (彭其捷), a Taiwan-based instructor and author who has worked with data for 15 years and published 12 books on data visualization, Tableau, Excel × AI, UI/UX and front-end development. My Excel + Tableau textbook has gone through 15+ printings and is adopted by many universities in Taiwan.

I love teaching. I have lectured and run workshops for 200+ organizations — including LINE, MediaTek, Foxconn, Momo, SYSTEX, KKday, Academia Sinica, ITRI, III and the Taiwan Academy of Banking and Finance — and I mentor the Data Analytics & Decision Club at National Taiwan University. I founded Knowmad Studio, a teaching team that promotes AI, data application and data visualization.

Data analysis should be a friendly tool that helps everyone make better decisions — not a skill reserved for a few specialists. With the right tools and basic data literacy, anyone can benefit, and generative AI has made this easier than ever.
