❤️ Meet Deb Torres, Senior Manager of UX Research. Deb and her team investigate user needs, motivations, and behaviors to ensure Roku products are simple and delightful to use. 🔍 ✨ In honor of #AAPIHeritageMonth, Deb reflects on the month's significance: “Celebrating heritage means acknowledging where we came from and becoming who we want to be. Growing up in a traditional immigrant family taught me to assimilate and blend in, but AAPI Heritage Month reminds me to embrace my voice and advocate for what I believe in. This is a time to celebrate our passions – whether it's family, career, or purpose – and use our voices for positive change." 👏 Deb continues, "For me, authenticity is key. It means challenging societal expectations and forging my own path as a woman, a Filipina-American, and a working mother.” 💫 #WeAreRoku #APIxRoku #AAPI #API #RokuSpotlight

When discussing her approach to self-care, Mahsa emphasizes the importance of mental well-being. 🧠 Roku’s partnership with mental health vendor Modern Health has been instrumental for Mahsa in making resources accessible to our employees and promoting self-care as a daily practice. 🌱 For Mahsa, self-care means reconnecting with nature, whether through a walk during work breaks or weekend hikes with her dog. She shares, “It is during these times that I feel most connected to myself, find clarity, and then can return to work with a renewed sense of purpose and perspective.” 😌 Mahsa incorporates various rituals like soothing soundscapes and mindful breathing exercises to foster inner harmony. 🧘 She also highlights the significance of meaningful connections, whether over a shared meal or a talk with loved ones, and the impact on her career. 🤝 “When I prioritize self-care, I’m more focused and efficient at work. It allows me to be more present and engaged with my colleagues and the tasks at hand.” 📈 Mahsa’s insights underscore that self-care isn't merely a luxury—it's essential for thriving personally and professionally. 🌷 #WeAreRoku #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek #MentalHealth #SelfCare #Roku #EmployeeBlog
