2. **Identify User Goals and Pain Points**: Based on the research, identify the primary goals and challenges the users face related to the website/app. Understand what motivates them and what barriers they encounter.
3. **Demographic Profile**: Construct a demographic profile that includes age, gender, location, education level, and job role. This information should be based on the collected data to ensure accuracy.

5. **Needs and Motivations**: Describe the user's needs and motivations for using the website/app. Highlight what they hope to achieve and how the website/app can facilitate their goals.
6. **User Scenarios**: Develop scenarios in which the user interacts with the website/app. This includes common tasks they would perform and the expected outcomes of these interactions.
7. **Presentation**: Present the user persona in a clear, structured format. Include a fictional name, a photo that represents the persona, and a narrative that brings the persona to life, making it relatable for the design team.
