About Evelyn and the Blog


Hi, I’m Evelyn!

The Creative Director behind Brickellista, a lifestyle brand that encompasses business, fashion, health, and fitness.

“Brickellista is a place where I share business tips, wellness ideas, fashion that inspires me, and of course, my love for Miami.”


Brickellista New Year's Eve

Brickellista started as my Twitter alias in August 2008 to get to learn about local events and restaurants in Miami. I was new to the city and wanted a way to connect without putting myself “out there.” I’m an introvert if you can believe that! As my Twitter following expanded, it became evident that there was a gap in resources for professionals seeking to uncover Miami’s hidden gems. And so, the concept of this blog was born.

Since its inception, Brickellista has transformed into a platform that not only explores the city’s treasures but also establishes connections with Miami’s movers and shakers. From cooking alongside celebrity chefs to showcasing designs from renowned fashion houses and delving into wellness with esteemed doctors, my journey with Brickellista has been an exhilarating education!

Proudly trademarked, the Brickellista brand reached new heights in 2016 when it was licensed, to Florida East Coast Realty for the Panorama building advertising campaign. It was an honor to see the Brickellista name on billboards, magazines, and bus stations. Following this campaign, the brand experienced rapid growth, attracting Fortune 100 companies seeking collaboration for their influencer campaigns.

It brings me immense joy to share my expertise with brands, ensuring their strategies seamlessly align with their target audience. This unique platform has facilitated collaborations with remarkable companies, enabling the curation of compelling content for their digital and social campaigns.

I am honored you are here today and hope you enjoy my little space on the Internet. Feel free to swing by anytime!
