ABOUT DATA DOZEN
DATA COMMUNICATION & DATA VISUALIZATION
hi there!
I'm Erin Waldron
Data Dozen is a one-woman shop that specializes in data communication and visualization.
I founded Data Dozen in 2017 to help folks get more out of their data. Often data communication is the last mile in the marathon that is a modern data project. Mediocre graphs and a weak communication plan at the end of a project can undermine all the incredible work that has gone into gathering, cleaning, and analyzing the data. My goal is to help organizations finish strong and maximize the impact of their data initiatives by ensuring that the key insights are intuitive and actionable for the intended audience.
a bit about me
MY BACKGROUND IS DIFFERENT (THAT'S A GOOD THING)
Poetry major turned analyst turned entrepreneur.
Unlike the majority of my colleagues in the analytics space, my background is in the humanities. I was a poetry major (no joke) with an analog photography minor. I discovered data visualization during my first job working in the administration at Washington University in St. Louis. It was love at first chart. I was surrounded by incredible mentors who trained me generously, and before long I was working as an institutional research analyst in the Provost’s Office. After several years at WashU, I left in 2017 to start Data Dozen, which I’ve run ever since. My communications background turned out to be the biggest differentiator in my work. Today I live in Kansas City with my husband Jay, daughter Madelyn, son Samuel, and pup Odin.
