Hi! Thanks so much for stopping by and taking the time to look through my work. I'm Jaya Rao, an illustrator and visual designer based in New Jersey.​​ I graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) in May 2026 with a BFA in Illustration.

 

My work spans illustration, brand identity, visual development, and 3D design. No matter the medium, I love using vibrant color, thoughtful details, and playful storytelling.

​

When I'm not designing, you'll probably find me hiking, crocheting, on duolingo, playing video games or trying a new craft.
