Table visual as a calendar visual - differentiate two conditional formatting in a single cell

Hi everyone. 

 

I have been attempting to create a calendar like visual using the table and conditional formatting and everything works until there are two different events on one day for one person. There are two events that could overlap but they need to be clearly shown when they do overlap. As shown by the red circle, this week should also somehow have red for the same person:

Taking the red circle, we could assume that the data looks like this:

Full NameDateEvent CountDescriptionColour
John Doe12/6/20231Engineering SupportRed
John Doe 13/6/20231Engineering SupportRed
John Doe 14/6/20231Engineering SupportRed
John Doe 15/6/20231Engineering SupportRed
John Doe 16/6/20231Engineering SupportRed
John Doe 12/6/20231Sales RotaOrange
John Doe 13/6/20231Sales RotaOrange
John Doe 14/6/20231Sales RotaOrange
John Doe 15/6/20231Sales RotaOrange
John Doe 16/6/20231Sales RotaOrange

 

I've tried some things, but they have not worked. Any ideas as to how I could differentiate the cells for any days that have two events?

      amitchandak I ended up creating an additional measure to detect if there are 2 events on a day and then using an icon to make sure it's different. Then for anyone wondering what it means, a tooltip clarifies it.
