Hi, I’m Roman Yanish

I help organizations, brands, and communities leaders design experiences that feel meaningful, memorable, and relevant.

I translate insight into experiences people genuinely connect with through holistic audience research, creative strategy, and engagement design.

I’ve worked in experience design since 2013 and collaborated with large-scale technology enterprises, innovative cultural institutions, and top earning creators to design experiences that resonate with their audiences on a human level.

At the Santa Cruz Museum of Art and History,

  • Succeeded outreach goals for internship recruitment by 125%

  • Increased volunteer participation by over 600 hours in one year

At Vizient Inc.,

  • Led AI product strategy research across 8 healthcare data analytics platforms

  • Planned and facilitated over 50 cross-functional workshops aligned with strategic outcomes

At Ukiah Natural Foods Coop,

  • Revitalized a stagnant outreach program, scaling average class attendance from 7 to 35 participants

  • Supercharged a targeted sales initiative, increasing sales volume by over 300%

  • Boosted digital engagement, elevating email open and click-through rate

Today, I specialize in helping organizations create experiences, messages, and environments that resonate with their audiences.

My approach is human-centered, strategically focused, and value-aligned. I believe the most memorable experiences are not just functional — they create atmosphere, identity, connection, and emotional meaning.

Whether designing a product experience, building a creative community, shaping a cultural event, or telling a brand story, I’m interested in the moments that make people feel something real.
