==Biography==
Back in 2004, after 2 years of doctoral studies in English Literature at the Jagiellonian University in Poland and 1 viewing of Pixar's Finding Nemo, Dadela decided to leave academia and pursue a career in 3D animation and visual effects. Dadela entered a 1 year intensive course at Vancouver Film School (2005 – 2006) and never looked back.

After graduating, Dadela first worked briefly in Dundee as a Character Artist for Real Time Worlds, before moving to Montreal to work for Ubisoft's cinematic studio. For the next 4 and a half years, she also worked for Ubisoft Digital Arts and Ubisoft's games studio on titles like: ''Assassin's Creed'', ''Far Cry 2'', ''Assassin's Creed Lineage'', ''Assassin's Creed Revelations'', ''Predators'' (movie), ''La Horde'' (movie), and many other projects.

In July 2011, Dadela spent 6 months in the Amsterdam area of the Netherlands, where she worked with Guerrilla Games (a division of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe) as a Senior Character Artist, until the December of that same year.

Currently, Dadela is employed as a Senior Character Artist at Ubisoft's new studio in Toronto, Canada.
