RESEARCH
COMPETITIVE analysis & DOCUMENTATION







INTERVIEWS
I conducted user-interviews with 4 key leaders in the Downtown Santa Monica organization which manages the Santa Monica Promenade. During this interview, I inquired about pain points, possibilities, and existing practices.
At the end of the interview I showed them the version one prototype that I designed that was focused on calculating covid risk and offering mobility options. This meeting helped me pivot to a pedestrian focused app that integrates with the needs of the local businesses who are suffering and the users of the promenade that are way finding.





PERSONA & USER JOURNEYS
Based on the Desktop Research, User-Interviews, Surveys, and Stakeholder Interviews; an ideal product user named Cassie Cordera emerged to inform the prototype design.
