My name is Maral Tabrizi and I am an Industrial Designer / Design Researcher based in Phoenix. I'm interested in the implications that  research has in creating new experiences.I love diving into areas I know nothing about, studying people which are strangers to me, and finding solutions to problems I did not even know existed. The methods that I usually use help me focus and  integrate multiple viewpoints. My approach is to capture, and analyze the stories behind people's actions and feelings, focus on the most critical problems and potentials, and implement solutions that make a difference for the users.
