Aloha, I'm Roger 🤙🏽

Curiosity drives me. Inclusion guides me. Research shapes me.
 

As a Senior UX Researcher & Designer, I bridge the gap between data and empathy to create intuitive, user-centered experiences. My passion lies in uncovering insights that drive meaningful design decisions, ensuring that technology serves everyone—not just the default user.
 

I specialize in UX research, accessibility, and inclusive design, focusing on healthcare, enterprise, and high-impact industries. My work spans end-to-end research, prototyping, usability testing, and front-end development, with a deep commitment to equity in design.
 

Beyond research and design, I’m an advocate for diversity, equity, and inclusion in tech—leading symplr’s LGBTQ ERG and co-founding PRISM to push for systemic change.

Although I was raised on, and currently live in Hawaiʻi, I’m open to relocating for the right opportunity. 🌍
 

Let’s connect and create something that makes a difference! 🚀
