Process / Five Steps

From intake to written findings.

Each review begins with a written intake. The client provides anonymized material and a specific question. I close read the material, mark patterns and produce written findings.

  1. 01

    Intake and scope

    A written intake captures the material type, language, use context and the decision the review should support. Scope, deliverable format and timeline are confirmed in writing before close reading begins.

  2. 02

    Close reading and annotation

    Anonymized material is read in full. Pattern markers cover authority flow, role position, semantic drift points, framing choices, uncertainty handling and affective rhythm.

  3. 03

    Pattern mapping

    Annotated observations are organized into recurring patterns, drift sequences and points where user interpretation may diverge from system intent.

  4. 04

    Findings memo

    A written memorandum presents observations, risk localization, framing recommendations and evidence level notes. Optional artifacts include annotated transcripts and risk matrices.

  5. 05

    Clarification

    A short asynchronous round addresses follow up questions. Further work is scoped separately when additional review is requested.

06Evidence Level

Findings stated at an appropriate level of confidence.

Findings are tied to evidence and stated with the appropriate level of confidence. Prevalence estimates, clinical validity claims, psychometric validation and intervention models sit outside the current evidence level.
