Monica has a great gift for understanding and capturing the nuances of your brand. She listens intently to more than the words you use to describe your style, she listens to the feeling and pulls it out to create an aligned style that captures your essence! Highly recommend! Laura Goodridge Founder Laura Lillie Coaching Manager Development & Leadership Coach

Monica made the branding process effortless.

She listened deeply, clarified my message, and translated it into a cohesive visual identity website, color palette, copy, and layout that truly reflects who I am and the clients I serve. She also created a kick-ass new logo for me that everyone loves! Her creative direction was spot-on, and she went the extra mile by updating my presentations to match the new brand and even create a custom email footer. Responsive, creative, whole-hearted, and incredibly talented. I would say I’d work with her again in a heartbeat, but we are still working together. She is that awesome. Heidi Araya

Working with Monica over the past year has been nothing short of transformative. As the creative director and design visionary behind my rebrand, she didn't just redesign the look of MISPIBO Fitness—she helped me redefine its feel and voice, ensuring that my personal brand, Coach Ambrose, fully embodied my mission.

From our regular brainstorming sessions to deep creative dives, Monica brought a level of insight, strategy, and execution that elevated everything about my brand. She seamlessly translated my vision into a cohesive brand kit, an engaging and polished new website, and a recommitment to my core values in deep health. Beyond design, she empowered me with the knowledge and tools to confidently carry my brand forward, teaching me how to manage and sustain my business long-term creatively.

Monica’s ability to blend creativity with strategy, her unwavering dedication, and her collaborative spirit made this entire experience not just successful, but enjoyable. I cannot recommend her and Kreative Playground enough to anyone looking to refine, refresh, or completely revolutionize their brand.

Thank you, Monica, for your talent, patience, and passion—you’ve truly helped me bring MISPIBO Fitness to life in a whole new way! Coach Ambrose Health and Wellness Consultant Owner Ambrosewb

Professional, accessible and amazingly helpful! She rescued my failing website and worked tirelessly to get it up and running. Her added flair and creativity brought an entirely new perspective to my products! Thank you so much Monica!

Monica at Kreative Playground shines as a true partner, having completely elevated all parts of my life coaching business. Building a business that not only excels in its branding but also drives meaningful change while staying aligned with my life's philosophy of PMA (positive mental attitude) is no small feat. It requires relentless dedication and thoughtfulness in every decision. What I’m thinking or have drafted Monica makes so much better! It’s like Magic! That’s why I’ve affectionately started calling her Magic Monica “MM” for short.

Monica not only meets me where I am; she has a deep understanding and alignment with my vision. She brings all of our projects to the next level providing me with calm, clarity, and excitement for my work.

I've worked tirelessly to cultivate my coaching practice, and it's always been a priority of mine to keep my clients first and my own well-being at the forefront, and working with Monica ensures that those both stay true.

I am so grateful for our partnership! Monica's commitment, professionalism, and ability to grasp my vision make her an invaluable part of my journey and an important part of my life.

With her expertise and passion guiding the way, I have no doubt that she will help you turn your dreams into reality.

Courtney Peters Owner of PMACoaching LLC

I’m delighted to write this testimonial for Monica who did a world class job designing my website. She understood my vision and enacted it in a way that I couldn’t be happier—until a respected colleague of mine commented upon viewing it: “It seems minimalist, but what it says and conveys is powerful.” That compliment made my smile even bigger! On top of it all, Monica is a delight to work with: she is a rare combination of uber-talented, patient, and fun. I thank you and give you the highest of recommendations for others seeking website design work.

Andy Churchill, phd, mba Owner of Present Better

She can teach you how to do stuff on your own OR help you bring your story to life + make your stuff (website, social images, decks) look fantastic is you want it done for you.

Rob Gilbear Business Coach Owner of Growth Habit

Monica has transformed Boundless Biomechanical Bracing in terms of our rebranding, marketing strategies, website, and the way we communicate. Monica, entrenched herself within our staff, clients to see and learn 1st hand what we do. This effort has gone a long way in bringing about the success we have had while on this journey.​ Her network of related professionals has brought us in touch with the best of writers, photographers/videographers, web based marketing strategists and now someone who is taking us through a bigger transformation around business strategies and development.​

We have been very fortunate to have Monica work with us and can only give the highest of recommendations. 😀

Dan Blocka Owner and President Boundless Biomechanical Bracing

Having a dedicated associate creative director support our marketing and business development efforts full time when you are supporting the growth of a 650+ person company is a real bonus. Not only did Monica get amazing work done under short timelines, she never dropped the ball and always went above and beyond. She made us shine in front of new clients, took away a big pain point in helping us build amazing presentation decks and support materials, she even found the time helping us build an amazing repository of tools that helped us work smarter not harder. Her eye on creative, value add and positive attitude of getting good shit done is priceless.

Alec Melkonian Thought Leader digital Health Klick Health

Monica did great work for my company, Edusave. She took time to understand the company's mission, product, and value proposition, and made our stale website come alive and communicate a message that resonates with viewers. We couldn't be happier with the layout, images, and colors on our desktop and mobile sites. In addition, Monica created beautiful graphics for our blog posts that made the written words much easier to understand. I would recommend Monica to anyone who needs help with any part of their on-line creative!

Michael Corr College Savings Expert

Monica helped us design a coherent web presence, as well as logo and stationary design. She was able to respect our industries traditional 'sensibilities' and to bring it together with a clean, crisp and fresh look. Monica was a delight to work even when we pushed back in certain areas and were somewhat inflexible in others. All in all, Monica was very responsive and adaptive, and in my view, most importantly she was able to keep challenging us in positive ways to think more broadly and with a fresher perspective.

Mark Stebbing Owner, NumbersPlus

Monica is an absolute professional and a wiz at what she does. I have worked with her extensively over the period of a year and some of my favourite (and most successful) projects were those I did with her. Her eye for detail, her creativity, and passion for what she does really elevates her as one of the best in the business.

Leslie Koby Client, Johnson and Johnson, USA

Monica has helped take my branding from something that looked like a one-man show to a extremely polished professional and complete package. She worked closely with me one on one to come up with logos and colours that matched what my company stood for and ultimately what my core values for my brand were. Once the work was completed I couldn’t believe I waited so long to have this done. Once you reach a certain level it’s the only way to break through and really start scaling your company and your brand. It’s absolutely necessary to have continuity throughout social media, your website, and all promotional material. People need to be able to recognize your brand and immediately connect with it. This is where the work Monica and I did that was so valuable. I repeatedly get compliments on my logo and people are super impressed that I have a complete styling guide and media package to handover immediately when it’s asked for. Thank you Monica for your kindness and personal approach you took towards my company and me.

Chris Stigas Founder HandiHelp

In my role as , we were in both an exciting and unending quest to land new clients and to build on the relationships/SOWs of our existing client base. Monica was in integral component of our process. She is the quintessential storyteller who fully utilizes her creative skills to build and/or differentiate a brand. Importantly, she is a committed partner in any ideation process and brings a high level of energy, of creative chops, and of design excellence in arriving at a solution. Monica is also a superb communicator, on the internal and/or external front. In my 40+ year career on the commercial and service-sides of healthcare, I’ve not worked with a more collaborative, strategic, and efficient creative partner.

I would recommend her without question to anyone and everyone looking or a top notch creative that really listens to their customers and then turns ideas into reality. Can't thank you enough, Monica!

Tom Thomas Founder and CEO at Votegrity

We worked with Kreative Playground on the refresh of our website.

Monica helped us go from a sleepy somewhat stodgy looking website to one that portrays a fresh and modern look and feel that aligns with our brand image. She has a keen eye for design and creatively can spin a brand image into something that can help drive engagement that can result in conversion. She is great to work with and is full of ideas that are shaped by her years of experience and successes working with large and SME's.

Gina Van Dalen Owner Profectus Association Management

A true creative -- she’s able to see creative possibilities in a brief that are invisible to the rest of us and she makes them come to life in a brilliant way.

Katherine Chan Senior Vice President & Chief Operating Officer, Rapp Global

Monica is immeasurably creative, immensely mature, and too grounded to be true. She knows her trade like she knows the back of her hand and it’s utterly fair to say that she’s one in a million. I worked with people from around the globe, literally from the four corners of the world but found no one like this fine lady; helpful, sharing, generous... and painfully honest.I’m lucky to having worked with her.

Heba Hassan Associate Creative Director (Writer), Dubai

A great example of someone with vision and passion. She is open-minded and as a creative director, has the ability to solve complex problems in a concise, fresh new way. She is an inspiration to the art of communications. I have had the pleasure of developing world-class work with Monica.

Cindy Nakamura Senior Account Manager, ADDB

Monica built my business website and was a terrific collaborator and technical wizard. She helped me navigate through content and design options and always welcomed feedback. Her creative talent shines through in everything she does and her professionalism is to be admired. I’d work with Monica again in a heartbeat.
