A Bit of History ✦

Crafting Identity
Since 2006

My journey began in the garage of my home in San Antonio — built on hard work, determination, and a vision to create something meaningful. When I returned home to Austin, I didn't just restart. I rebuilt.

Through dedication, 19+ years of hands-on experience, and the power of word of mouth, the business grew stronger than ever. Every project is personal. Every success story is shared.

Why choose Evangelina

What Sets Me Apart

Word of Mouth Built This

No ad spend, no cold outreach. Nearly every client has come through a referral. That only happens when the work speaks and the relationship lasts — and that's intentional.

Original. Every Time.

No templates, no AI-generated shortcuts, no stock-illustration fills. Every concept starts with a blank page, a sketchbook, and a genuine understanding of your brand.

Fair Pricing. Always.

19 years in this industry means I know what things cost — and what they're worth. I'll never pad a quote, upsell unnecessarily, or price someone out of quality design.

Every Project Is Personal

I don't have an account manager between us. You work directly with me — the person designing your project — from the first conversation to the final file delivery.

How I think about design

Personal Philosophy

01

Inspiration is everywhere.

The best ideas rarely come from staring at a screen. They come from the texture of a label at a farmers market, a mural in an alley, the way light hits a storefront window. I stay curious — always — and that curiosity shows up in every project.

02

Strategy before aesthetics.

Beautiful design that doesn't serve a purpose is decoration. Before a single sketch, I want to understand who your audience is, what problem we're solving, and what success actually looks like for you.

03

Trust is the product.

Clients come back — and send their friends — because they trusted the process and loved the result. Transparency, honest timelines, and fair pricing aren't extras. They're the foundation.

How every project runs

The Process

01

Listen

I start by understanding your world — your goals, your audience, your constraints, and your taste. No two briefs are the same.

02

Sketch

Everything starts on paper. Hand-drawn concepts let ideas flow without the pressure of pixels — raw, fast, and genuinely original.

03

Refine

Approved directions move to digital. We iterate together through focused feedback rounds until the design feels exactly right.

04

Deliver

Final files land in your inbox clean, organized, and ready for whatever comes next — print, web, or production.

When I'm Not Designing

Mixed Media Art

Painting, collage, and anything tactile — the same instincts that make my design work interesting.

Live Music

Austin's the right city for it. Catching live shows keeps me creatively charged.

Reading

Design history, branding case studies, the occasional novel. Always learning.

Farmers Markets

Packaging inspiration, great produce, and good people. Weekly ritual.

Cooking

Recipes are just another kind of brief — constraints that lead to something delicious.

Dog Mom

Chief morale officer, nap supervisor, and the most honest creative critic in the building.
