Hi! I’m Vaish.



Art, Design & Strategy · Boston, USA

I’m a multidisciplinary designer with 8+ years of experience across the US, Kuwait & India, working at the intersection of design & strategy. My work spans branding, communications, animation, web, social media and visual storytelling for clients across finance, healthcare, higher education, engineering, tech and the arts.

Born + raised in the Middle East, having lived in India and now in the US, my life has been rather nomadic. I bring a global, culturally-informed lens to my work. As a self-taught papercut artist, I’ve exhibited work in galleries in the USA & Europe. I love mentoring emerging designers, and frequently teach workshops + guest lectures at Suffolk University and Boston University.

When I’m not in the studio, you can find me singing, making paneer jalfrezi or taking photos of our dog everytime he naps (i.e. all the time). Let’s connect!
