Dashlight Studio

Turning data, strategy, and insight into stories that drive action.

What story is your data trying to tell?

Selected Sample Dashboards

These dashboard projects are built on fictional data, designed to reflect the kinds of reporting problems I’ve solved over the past decade. To protect my former employers and clients, no data shared here is real — but each sample is based on real organizational needs, data structures, and bottlenecks.

DotDash Data

Problem: A distributed team of data annotators lacked clarity on productivity, workload balance, and output trends across time and geography.

Solution: Designed a dashboard for operations and team leads to track daily task completion, average task duration, and workflow split by user — allowing management to quickly spot outliers and adjust staffing.

Vertex Industrial Supplies

Problem: Regional sales managers couldn’t reconcile sales outcomes with fulfillment delays, and leadership had no consolidated view of representative performance.

Solution: Built an integrated dashboard showing sales volume by product line and region, rep-level performance over time, and fulfillment gaps — enabling targeted inventory adjustments and rep coaching.

Problem: The support team was experiencing burnout and inconsistent resolution times, but leadership had no clear view of agent workload or spikes in volume.

Solution: Created a dashboard tracking resolution times, agent-level ticket volume, and spike alerts. Included filters for category and escalation level to support daily standups and staffing decisions.

I built my career at the intersection of project management, analytics, and reporting.For over a decade, I’ve supported teams in making performance data answer business questions. My focus is on building dashboards that reduce reporting overhead, surface relevant metrics, and help people make faster, more confident decisions.

When I'm not building dashboards, I'm managing projects, contract compliance, and change initiatives.

Sometimes I write books.

I work primarily in Looker Studio and specialize in designing dashboards that are:

  • Clear enough for non-technical stakeholders

  • Flexible enough for different audiences

  • Rooted in real-world reporting problems and operational best practices

Draw One in the Dark

Some towns fall off the map. Others disappear on purpose.In the shadows of a fractured America, the town of Adelaide has kept its distance. No phones, no internet, no interference. For nearly a decade, it’s worked. People grow their food, mind their neighbors, and don’t ask too many questions until Samuel Wolfe arrives.What unfolds next is a quiet reckoning. Secrets surface. Loyalties shift. And the fire that nearly destroyed Adelaide once may be the only thing that can save it again.Draw One in the Dark is a slow-burning dystopian novel about memory, resistance, and the power of a town that refuses to vanish.

Get the Money You Deserve

Have you been injured on the job? Struck by a vehicle? Screamed at while sorting medical records at 10PM on a Wednesday?You may be entitled to Get The Money You Deserve.Bea Lloyd wanted to help people. Instead, she landed at a personal injury firm where suffering is monetized, paralegals are disposable, and the phrase "client care" means keeping the screaming to a dull roar.Equal parts hilarious, infuriating, and too true to be entirely fiction, The Money You Deserve is for anyone who's ever wanted to walk out of their office and never, ever go back.
