about our founder

JACKIE MONK is the Founder and Owner of JUNEBUG INK. She is a lifelong fan of fine greeting cards and stationery, as well as the art—and power—of handwritten correspondence. After an illustrious career at some of the finest print magazines, she launched JUNEBUG INK in April 2022. The company, which prides itself on celebrating African-American culture and traditions, is named after her late sister June who was a stationery collector and letter writing aficionado.
Prior to starting JUNEBUG INK, Jackie was the managing editor at WSJ. The Wall Street Journal Magazine. There she managed the print and digital teams, was responsible for editorial operations, supervised the budget and helped launch WSJ. China. Before joining WSJ., Jackie was the deputy managing editor at Real Simple, and executive editor at Essence and InStyle. She has held senior editorial positions at Vibe, Girl, Bridal Guide, New Woman, and Beauty Digest. Her work has also appeared in Harper’s Bazaar, Heart & Soul, Cosmopolitan, Suede, and Ladies Home Journal.
A media executive with extensive leadership, management, strategic, and operations expertise, Jackie is known for synthesizing information, implementing effective systems, and efficiently executing projects. While in her mid-twenties, she became beauty editor at New Woman, making her one of the first African American beauty editors at a major, general audience women’s magazine.
Throughout her career, Jackie has been a committed mentor to dozens of students, up-and-coming journalists, and successful executives. She has received many industry accolades, including the Folio Top Women in Media Award, Black Women in Media: Literature & Publishing Award, and ColorComm Women of Color in Communications Award.
