Hayley Pires is a multidisciplinary designer based out of Newport, Rhode Island. Utilizing her unique perspective and out-of-the-box thinking to deliver strategic brand insights and design has earned her a name in the field. After receiving a bachelor’s degree in Packaging Design from the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City, she worked for global design studios working on well-known brands such as PepsiCo, CVS, P&G and Campari Group. Not only has she designed for big brands, she also worked with growing small businesses. This diversity has allowed her to develop skills for large scale projects, while still maintaining great passion for the smaller ones.

After spending 10 years in New York City, it was time to get back to her roots and make Newport home again. Her goal has been to connect with local businesses and immerse herself in growing the design community here in Rhode Island.
