A former UAF student, he attended Trinity College and Brown University before receiving his master's degree in public administration from Harvard University's John F. Kennedy School of Government.

In 1996 Rogers formed one of Alaska's leading economic and public policy consulting firms, Information Insights, serving as principal consultant and chief financial officer.
