Antony Catella

I work as a Technical Pre-Sales Consultant for Tekantis, the company behind Icon Map Pro and Slicer. A key function of my roles is to assist clients in visualising their location data within Power BI, which includes how to model their data. Outside of work I co-organise the Devon and Cornwall Power BI User Group which is very rewarding and a great learning experience. I also achieved my DP-600 certification in 2025.
