Our Personas Leona’s interviewees were an accumulation of community members as well as a few family members. After the interviews were conducted, she put the questions online through an online survey to ask an online community beyond Long Island for a cumulative answer of the questions. While there was no direct connection between he people who completed the survey and Leona, It was interesting to see what a general population had to say as well. From her data, Leona found that almost all of the people she interviewed wanted to see more from the Greek culture. The said that they wanted to learn and experience more from the culture. The community saw the inauthenticity of the Greek restaurants around them and wanted to know what a true Greek experience would be like outside of Greece. The interviewees also stated that they loved the concept of farm to table which at the time, was a large variable of the food ingredients for the restaurant. All Greek-Americans admired that the true Greek cuisine was found in a local garden meaning that locally grown ingredients will be able to hone in on creating that authentic experience. Over all, the data pointed directly at the fact that people wanted more from the Greek community and didn’t want to be forced into the city to experience that. Once the data was collected, it was processed to create three personas of which were used to describe the types of customers Atlas would target. 41
