While working on an extensive design research project regarding produce traceability, my team put together the framework of a persona database. By making this database, we were better able to keep track of the many variables regarding the individuals that impact produce traceability, including how much of an impact they have, where they have an impact, and certain things that they do throughout their day that can effect the system. We added easy to understand icons and symbols, as well as a faux drop down window that displayed images reflecting the persona's habits, rituals, and contact with the produce.

Occupation: FarmerEducation: College StudentLocation: Cortland, NYAge: 27Attitude: He loves his job and the physical labor but tends to mess around a bit.

Hank is a country boy at heart with a positive attitude and a very playful side. When he’s not working on the farm he has a large friend base who love to do activites in the outdoors, whether its skiing, white water rafting, or hiking the adirondacks. Hank is currently enrolled in an ESF school for agriculture and hopes to use the degree to design better harvesting and distributing systems. He loves martial arts and attends many black belt spares throughout the U.S. Hank also has a soft spot, however, maintaining a �ower only greenhouse. His wife Marlene and him like to spend quality time together cooking and watching movies with their three dogs. A psuedo intellectual with a very curious mind and the passion to learn Hank is a very well rounded human being.

Hank is a main apple harvestor on the farm. Although the farm does utilize harvesting machines, Hank very often comes in physical contact with the apples. Every harvestor is required to wear sanitary gloves, but sometimes Hank forgets to switch them out after he handles machinery and other tools. Hank also touches the apples when sorting the bins in the holding barn.
