About the author

Anne Walsh is a freelance trainer (since the mid-90s) aka as The Excel Lady. She got this name when people would look at her and say, “you, you’re the Excel Lady!” She saw her first spreadsheet in the early 1990s and has been intrigued by them ever since, even though they only came in green or orange. She likes to say she puts the “fun in functions” and is excited by the potential of Power Query.
