I need to synthesize user research into a findings report. The research question we were trying to answer: [one sentence]. Here are my notes: [paste]. Please: 1. Group what you find into 3 to 5 major themes 2. For each theme, write: what users said (with 1 to 2 direct quotes if they exist), what it means, and what we should consider doing about it 3. Add an executive summary at the top 4. Flag anything where different users said contradictory things. Don't resolve those tensions; just surface them clearly.
