How to Create User Personas
By Marissa Martinez
Personas are visual stories that describe actual customers. Personas draw a detailed picture of the user, what they want to accomplish, what knowledge or skills they may or may not have, and why certain things may be more important to them. The products or services you design try to solve these customer problems. Personas help the team focus on user-centered design.
