Hi! I’m Nazar Yarish — a toy designer with a passion for play and a love for adventure. I graduated from F.I.T. in NYC with a degree in Toy Design and Fine Arts and got my start at Mattel in California. From there, I headed to join Spin Master, where I had the amazing opportunity to design for PAW Patrol toys — and fun fact, my name’s even in the credits of season 3 for my work on the Air Patroller and flight gear!

My time in LA was a game-changer. I worked with some of the best designers in the industry, which launched me into my next chapter back in NYC as a Principal Designer at BARK — the leading dog toy company. I lead the design of hundreds of toys each year for both pets and kids, with many becoming best-sellers at Target, Petco, and Costco.

Outside of work, you’ll find me hiking, snowboarding, camping, or off on a new adventure. I’m always open to freelance projects in both the children’s and pet space — feel free to reach out!
