@slindsay @Excited for Round 2 starting today! 🚀

I submitted my entry this morning - "Peach Sales & Yield Dashboard" for the Power BI Dataviz World Championships. 

Loved building it with advanced DAX, KPI tracking, and interactive visualizations for the Agriculture domain.

All the best to everyone participating in Data Days! Let's make some amazing dashboards 💪
