About Zeinab Aghdassi

A Passionate Experience Designer with an engineering background. Despite being enthusiastic about Polymer, I decided to pursue my lifelong passion for design. Therefore, I started M.A of industrial design at the Art University of Tehran. From 2014, I drowned myself in design-related workshops and conferences. Yet I have come to realize that my ultimate passion is Design Thinking, specifical research around methodologies of it. I am interested in User Research Experience, with a focus on human-centered design approach. Right now I am working as an user researcher specifically on Persona Definition and Development and customer journey mapping. In addition, I teach what I am learning by doing in this field at university and college .
