Edreys Wajed is a catalyst of inspiration and a walking enterprise of all things creative. The Buffalo native boasts a toolbox chock-full of talents and experiences ranging from a visual artist, jewelry designer, musical entertainer, educator, and entrepreneur with notable recognitions in each. His approach in each endeavor is soundly unique, high quality, and signature in presentation, having found his course as a creator early in life.
When Edreys was 14, he taught himself the trade of barbering when his mother could no longer afford his haircuts. He began making money for himself in the basement of his childhood home, and also began growing a client base and reputation for customized hats and clothes as well as logo design by hand, long before learning graphics in college. His creativity, craftsmanship, and passion to inspire people are what drive his spirit of entrepreneurship.
From touring nationally and internationally as a hip-hop artist to writing a play based off his poetry; Edreys is exceptionally diverse with his avenues of expression, including the fine craft of jewelry making, passed down from his father and master craftsman. Edreys is most recently recognized locally for his contribution as an artist on the Freedom Wall which features 28 civil rights dignitaries, seven of whom he painted with his unique style and use of line.
“Creativity is my neighbor, I live by it,” says Edreys.
