  Sarah Presson

  Founder / Creative Director

  As a Creative Director, I aim to provide vision, experience and creative knowledge.  I lead the creative team in transforming challenging subjects into clear, engaging & effective concepts. From consultation to finished product, I work tirelessly to invent new ways to evolve a client’s message, and achieve exceptional results for a wide variety of businesses and organizations.

  One of my greatest assets is taking any problem and working out the best and most effective ways to approach it. I have a healthy obsession with all things digital, strongly believing in the intersection of design and technology. Constantly exploring new ideas, I’ll jump at the chance to be involved in any aspect of a project.

  Director of Operations

  I am the Project Manager at Eye Like Design.

  No two clients are alike, and I enjoy working with folks to customize their experience with us. I help establish timelines and deliverables that fit their schedules, and keep up with them all along the way to ensure each project runs smoothly.

  I graduated from The University of Texas’ School of Fine Arts, but later found my talent leaned more toward “wrangling creatives” – keeping the makers and doers organized and on task and implementing practices that allow them to focus more time on their craft.

  My ultimate goal is to ensure that every client we work with enjoys the creative process as much as we do!

  Senior Designer

  I joined the Eye Like Design staff in May of 2017.  I am the go-to illustrator here at the office, and when I’m not doing that, I find joy in creating meaningful user experiences that not only look beautiful, but are rooted in concept-driven thinking and make people’s lives easier.

  I earned my BFA in Communication Design at Texas State University where I discovered my strengths in translating small ideas into living, breathing creative projects.

  Through research, iteration, and open communication, I strive to push past obvious solutions with an active imagination so each client’s vision translates in the most unique way possible. I believe in tailoring my approach to every individual client based on the story they wish to tell, and finding the perfect tool set for each job.

  I lead business development and brand strategy at Eye Like Design. I have worked in a variety of positions at agencies across San Antonio and Austin, including roles as an account executive, web developer, and business development manager. Over the years executing in these positions I came to appreciate the throughlines that brought all of the disciplines together– brand strategy. I love bridging fundamental brand strategy with the creative process to create brands that are unique, authentic, and memorable.

  I’m a user interface designer and the go to front end developer at Eye Like Design. In the past 10+ years I’ve focused on user interface and user experience design, but still love a good print project as well. Relying on my skills in interface design, information architecture, responsive design, CMS development, color theory, and typography, I collaborate with our clients to create elegant, intuitive, and memorable experiences across all devices and media. In addition to my design work I draw, paint, and help run a non-profit art gallery in East Austin, MASS.

  I met Sarah when I was just fifteen years old when and she worked as a high school design mentor. This led me to complete a BFA in Design at the University of Texas where I focused my thesis on sensory and design and its effects on emotion and memory. Ten years later I still enjoy working on design projects with Sarah at ELD while concurrently continuing my education into web development.
