Hi there! ✨

My name is Sarah Mekonnen [Mc-cone-nun]. I am a Product Designer currently @ Razorfish located in VA. I’ve made strides in the UX field and look forward to keep climbing the metaphorical ‘mountain’.

​

My Design Philosophy: Transparency and Understanding.

 

Design communicates the unsaid truths of today. If we go back in history and look at the modern art of their time it is certain that art, culture, architecture and technology says a lot about who created it and what was happening at the time.

​

Lucky for me as a Product Designer I get to ponder on the ‘Why’ of the product and be a part of how design drives impact to the business and who it (the business) is or rather who it is becoming by molding the end-users’ experiences with this understanding.

Lastly, I love a good list! Here’s my current favorites outside of 9-5:

• Photography

• Creating yearly Apple Music🍎 playlists: If you don’t like Bad Bunny don’t click

• Reading fiction: Catch me on Goodreads!

• Home decor is my jam

• Plant Care = my forever fav

• Nature walks (Especially in the fall 🍁)

• Puzzles, board games, legos and anything tactile

• Traveling around the world with some of my closest people ✈️♥️

• Trying out local food and cultural events in the city
