- 50. Meera Umasankar Finding your own data can be a struggle and to be honest, I feared participating in Iron Viz. To let go of that fear, I began participating in Iron Quest. I went on to participate in the 3rd Iron Viz feeder in 2019 and I was on cloud nine to see my viz in place 5th on the Top 10 list! 51

- 54. Kate Schaub Compared to other community projects, #IronQuest really leaves the entire process in your hands rather than providing the data or a solution. The best part? You get constructive feedback in a completely “safe” environment where everyone is truly there to help you learn and grow. 56
