My team and I designed and prototyped a mobile application that helps traveling workers on the road find local restaurants. Our design goal was to immediately provide the closest listings, and allow users to refine their criteria later if they so choose. I contributed by brainstorming design ideas, creating wireframes, creating a persona and writing a scenario of use.

Persona

I created a persona and shot photographs of him in context in order to help drive our design ideation. Scott is a 27 year old camera operator who travels from city to city to film political events for cable. When he gets off work in a new town he wants to find a place nearby to eat and get a beer with his coworkers
