About Ted Visaya
Ted is a multidisciplinary designer, artist, writer, and creative researcher with roots in both the technology world and the islands. Based now in Honolulu, Hawaiʻi, Ted brings together his years of Silicon Valley experience, his island heritage, and a spiritual sensibility to his work.
A Journey of Technical Mastery + Creative Vision
Ted holds a Bachelor of Science in Behavioral Science from the University of San Francisco, which shaped his understanding of human dynamics, motivation, and systems thinking. Over decades in engineering, design, and R&D roles, he has built expertise in:
- Project management, problem solving, and systems design
- Design integration across mechanical, electrical, and user experience domains
- Research, prototyping, and concept development
- Bridging technical rigor with aesthetic communication
Rather than siloing creativity and engineering, Ted’s approach is to synthesize both: to craft designs that are not only efficient and functional but also expressive, meaningful, and human-centered.
