Meet Monika Hibbs
Founder & Creative Director
Monika first started blogging in 2011 as The Doctor’s Closet, a creative escape from the rigours of working in the medical field. Slowly but surely, her blog began to grow, building a dedicated following across Canada, the United States and throughout the world. Now, following a rename and redesign, Monika Hibbs is the place to find Monika’s best DIY tutorials, home decor recommendations, entertaining tips, and more.
When she isn’t hard at work running and overseeing MH operations, Monika loves to entertain family and friends, making memories and building traditions for her husband (Troy), son (Liam) and daughter (Lillya). She loves the feeling of a challenging workout or a long run, and stealing away a couple minutes to curl up in a sun-soaked room with a good book and a warm cup of coffee.
MEET THE TEAM
Erin Girard
Managing Director & Food Editor
Love food? Meet Erin, our food-loving, travel-hungry, creative writing mom. She brings nine years of experience as a pastry chef to the MH team, and is the genius behind the food styling and recipe writing on the blog. Erin loves being outdoors and listening to good music. If you’re lucky enough to enjoy the food at one of our events, you’ll know she’s extremely talented at what she does.
Lindsay Hawkes
Editor
Lindsay‘s love for writing landed her the editor role on the MH team. When she closes her laptop and puts down her pen, Lindsay likes spending time with her husband and son, training for her next half-marathon, and catching up on her favorite TV shows.
Sarah Konyer
Graphic Designer
Sarah’s design and fine art background are only one of the reasons she’s a valuable member of the MH team. Her love for design and keen artistic eye are apparent in everything she does. She’s our go-to girl for all design work, creative concepts, mood board creation and any other creative job she can get her hands on.
When she’s not designing, Sarah is spending time with her husband, daughter, and pup. Most weekends she can be found at the farmer’s market or on her sailboat dreaming of her next travel destination.
