Split developer and personal accounts

I recently was creating an app for my employer and inadvertently used my personal Roku account for the developer account. When I thought I was adding a new account, it actually changed the email address on my personal account to my work email. Is there a way to split my developer account from my personal account (leaving the developer account with my work email address and moving my personal account attached to my personal Roku Streaming Stick (3800 series) back to my personal email address)?

    So you only have one account right now?  Just go to https://my.roku.com and change your email address back to what you want it to be.  To create a second account you'll probably have to clear out your cookies or use a private/incognito window to ensure you're not operating on your personal account.  Go to the same website and create a new account.  The only way to link your stick to the new account is to factory reset it, but there isn't really a need for that.  You can package your channel on any device on any account and just upload the package to your developer account.  For more questions, the developer section is a better place:
