From Cradle to Grave:
Where does the Persona Live?
Ramya
@rams_mahalingam
PERSONA
A persona is a fictional, yet realistic, description
of a typical or target user of the product.
— Aurora Bedford, Nielsen Norman Group
we’re not designing
for ourselves
EMPATHY
EMPATHY
JUDGEMENT
“Why are the poor people’s
pictures so much worse?”
“Why are the poor people’s
pictures so much worse?”
“Because these people
represent who we serve.”
“Why are the poor people’s
pictures so much worse?”
“Because these people
represent who we serve.”
“But why are the pictures of
everyone else stunning? If this
is how we view poor people
(scuzzy, dirty), it will come
across in our service to them –
which is just as valuable as to
the ‘good’ patrons.”

R.I.P.
1.
our comfort levels
we tend to make personas that are
safe, comfortable, and familiar
2.
reductionary
& exclusionary
I’m guilty about not using it
right, or not using it enough
Who I am is not captured
I feel “Othered”
I feel less important
All of these personas are
younger than me…does that
make me old?
I feel like I’m using something
that wasn’t really built for me
3.
the focus
1. our comfort levels
2. reductionary & exclusionary
3. the focus
person-nah’s?
