User Persona
Diana Fisher, Digital Marketer
- 35
- Rehovot
- MBA
Diana a mother of 3, is a hard-working and professional worker who manages to divide her time and lectures between running a household and cultivating a successful career.
- A day in their life
Dana wakes up early in the morning to prepare breakfast for her children and her husband and for the rest of the day.
On days when she finishes early, returns home and starts cooking for lunch and dinner. On days when not, she prepares these meals ahead of time.
On Fridays, when it's her day off from work, she's usually busy cooking from morning for Friday dinner.
- Pain points
Since most of the cooking she does is for her children, she is limited in terms of their restrictions and preferences in food.
Because her schedule is tight and crowded, she often fails to find simple and delicious recipes that do not require much time and preparation.
