MEET THE TEAM

Meet our founder, Angela

Angela Laines is a South Bay native and first-generation Portuguese-American who founded Silveira Designs after more than a decade designing inside very different organizations. An agency in Gilroy, then Skype, then a local nonprofit.

Her early work came through local nonprofits, and it truly shaped how Silveira Designs runs today. She knows what it's like to need something to look excellent on a budget that doesn't stretch far, and she's never forgotten it.

She specializes in brand systems across print and digital, with a soft spot for the long, content-heavy pieces most designers avoid. Program brochures, handbooks, annual reports. If it's dense and important, she wants it!

Angela holds a degree in Graphic Design from San Jose State, and there's nothing she loves more than helping a local business land on a brand that finally feels like them.
