Hello, My name is Maral Tabrizi and I am an Industrial Designer / Researcher in Phoenix. the observation of human behavior and emotions always fascinates me, and I am interested in turning such observations into meaningful design opportunities. I love to capture, and analyze the stories behind people's actions and feelings. I believe that Design Research should be used as a tool to increase learning and facilitate wisdom through user collaboration. this encourages the consumers to share not only their immediate reactions but also their emotions which is the key to finding out about user needs, habits, experiences, frustrations, and satisfactions. During my education in Arizona State University, I gained necessary skills to perform teamwork, empathic observation, universal design, qualitative and quantitative design research, design ethnography,Analyzing human dynamics and motivations, Understanding the consumer experiences, mind mapping, creating user scenarios, generating storyboards, market data analysis , usability evaluations, task analysis and context exploration. The qualitative methods that I have experience using are: In-depth focus groupsDigital Ethnography Virtual Ethnography Depth interviewing On-site observation A little More about me: I am originally from Iran, the City of Tehran. my culture and background have always been influential and inspiring in my works and thoughts.
