I'M SARAH MURGEL.

[Currently employed full-time at Salesforce.]

01 WHAT I DO

Passionate, enthusiastic, creative design leader with insatiable curiosity, a hunger for learning, and a nose for problem identification and solving.

INSIGHTS

Through a series of primary and secondary research activities, I will provide a fresh take on the current state and landscape. How are users and others in our space (or not) tackling similar issues? Where do we fall short? Where shall we focus our efforts? The insights will fuel further definition phases and help us understand where to focus our design activities.
