Hi! I’m Vaish.
Senior Designer, Strategist + Artist / Boston, USA
With 7+ years of work experience in the US, Kuwait and India, my practice is rooted in strategizing around diverse needs and designing solutions for a global audience. I have successfully led branding, animation, print & digital comms., album artwork, UI, photo & video, social media and art direction for clients in tech, healthcare, higher education, engineering, finance, non-profits and the arts.
Born & raised in the Middle East, lived in India and now in the US, my life has been rather nomadic. In my studio practice, this fosters a multidisciplinary approach to craft intricate work. As a self-taught papercut artist, my work has been exhibited in galleries in the USA, Russia and Italy. I love mentoring emerging designers, and teach workshops + guest lectures at Suffolk University and Boston University.
When I’m not in the studio, you can find me singing, trying a new recipe, or taking photos of our dog everytime he naps (i.e. all the time). Let’s connect!
