Meet the Founder

Hi, I'm Lona.

I’m a Louisiana-based designer with a background in graphic design, branding, and digital strategy — and over a decade of experience helping businesses tell their story visually and confidently. I've worked in both in-house and agency environments, building everything from websites to brand systems for clients across a variety industries, from restaurants to nonprofits and everything in between.

I launched Hello Minneaux to bring creative support to the small businesses and scrappy startups that inspire me most. As a small studio (and a small business myself), I know the impact thoughtful design can have — and I believe great work happens when strategy, clarity, and creativity come together with heart.
