Mina Starsiak Biography

The co-owner and star of HGTV's Good Bones, Mina Starsiak Hawk, is the proprietor of Two Chicks and a Hammer. She left Indiana University with a general studies degree and a long list of minors. She was looking for her passion and unsure of what she would take on in the future. She started working as a waiter at a restaurant after graduating. She bought her first property with her mother Karen as a co-signer since she was adrift and wanted to act more maturely like all of her college classmates. The $12,000 home needs urgent repairs. She discovered something she liked doing—working on her own and being her own boss—while renovating her first home. Once the first house was complete, work moved on to the next. Depending on their budget, she and Karen were completing one to three houses a year when one day she received an unusual message. The business that Starsiak Hawk and her mother had established piqued the curiosity of a talent scout. It was disregarded because the scout had to persuade people to change their minds since they thought the entire situation was a fraud. For a sizzler clip that was self-filmed, a camera was dispatched. A pilot was produced based on that clip, and a first season followed. Starsiak Hawk resigned from her position as a server as the production company said they wanted greater access to her time for shooting. Now, doing this was a full-time job. The amount of work for Two Chicks and a Hammer increased dramatically since the production company required 10 homes to be used for filming. No season is guaranteed, but Starsiak Hawk and the Two Chicks and a Hammer crew work hard to earn every renewal. Starsiak Hawk, who is from the Midwest, has a very grounded lifestyle, which is reflected in her design aesthetic. She characterizes her personal style as approachable, simple, relaxed, with a dash of color, and luxurious. The houses on "Good Bones" make this clear. Her approach to easily accessible beauty and comfort has advanced as a result of her recent pregnancy; everything she installs, from the building itself down to the furnishings and fixtures, strikes the perfect balance between aesthetics and use. Starsiak Hawk is a workaholic who is constantly connected to the business even when she just has a phone at her disposal. She is passionate about spending time with her family away from work. Since having Jack, her son, she has become more mindful of coming home from the office or field at a more reasonable time so that she may appreciate what she has established, the family within her permanent home. She makes sure to take time during the show to stop by her house to give her kid a squeeze. She considers her pets to be family as much as her kid and spouse. Her passion for both kids and pets has influenced the social effect of Two Chicks and a Hammer in Indianapolis. The staff keeps a Do Good calendar that lists days spent at the neighborhood shelter attempting to find homes for dogs and supporting neighborhood educational initiatives. Two Chicks and a Hammer's goal statement and the inspiration for everything Starsiak Hawk and the business do is to revitalize Indianapolis one property at a time. She and Two Chicks and a Hammer have been working hard to make Indianapolis a happier, more beautiful place since it first began as a side gig.
