Hi! My name is Saaj (SAH · z) ~ I am a designer and researcher.
-
Deconstructing user needs, translating stakeholder abstractions and cross functional collaboration are imperative throughout my design process.
-
I'm a multitasker~ I can hold up to 7 items in a single hand when I have no pockets or a bag~ take from that what you will.
-
I specialize in conceptualization, storytelling, and data visualization - applicable across an entire product cycle.
-
I love making to do lists. I often use the MoSCoW method or matricize task prioritization (watch me bedazzle a kanban board✨)
Find me and my heaps of unnecessary stationery at a window table of a tiny cafe feeding my love for coffee, odd playlists, and sketching and reciting make-belief stories for strangers passing by.
Design Information
Design Philosophy
Empowering User Autonomy
Emphasis on Collaboration and Empowerment
I value the importance of allowing individuals to explore and experiment with ideas while providing steady support to succeed.
Co-creation of Solutions
I believe in partnering with users and stakeholders by respecting their expertise, building creativity and imagination to uncover and refine their vision of a product.
Ownership and Active Participation
I focus on a user’s perspective and needs. Resonating with the Ikea Effect, I aim to foster a sense of ownership and satisfaction towards the final product.
