Data Design Dimension—DADEDA—is an independent creative technology, design, and communications studio. It's also an ethos, a personal commitment to work that suits the technologist and creative in me, principal, Kathryn Hurchla. Work with me and occasional partners through an LLC structure on passion projects and expanding important discourse through publishing and speaker engagements.
