    Jeroen Janssens' journey into data science workshops began unexpectedly after the release of his book. Initially approached by a company in Barcelona to conduct a workshop on command line tools, he found the experience so rewarding that it inspired him to expand his offerings. By 2017, Jeroen had established a full-time business, providing workshops and coaching in data science, machine learning, and data visualization.

    I liked giving the workshop so much that I decided to do this more often, and not just about the command line, but also R and Python.
