The Kevin Doherty Scholarship to Support Digital Creativity

Kevin Doherty has been in a creative leadership role for nearly 2 decades bringing beautiful aesthetics to his functional solutions. The love of design was something deeply rooted in Kevin, seeing a world full of colors, shapes, sounds, and beauty. His love for creativity, design, and thirst for exploration and knowledge led him down the path of development where Kevin truly began to marry design with development principles, and his extensive experience in both disciplines, made him the perfect fit to forge form and function bringing his creations to life. 

Kevin is employee #2 at NVISION and has been an integral part of NVISION’s growth over the last decade and a half. Kevin leads a team of creatives where he preaches the philosophy of “Design is more than aesthetics, it is solving a problem, design is the solution to that problem”

Kevin thrives on the creative process and welcomes new challenges. Much of Kevin’s work is award-winning and recognized internationally. If you’re ever looking to debate the best design tools, Kevin is your guy.
