Sometimes in life good things come to us in unexpected ways when we never worked for them. Mina Starsiak can attest to this, as that’s how she landed her role as the main cast on a TV show simply by answering a phone call.
Bio and age of Mina Starsiak
Mina was born as Mina Nicole Starsiak on November 26, 1987 in Indianapolis, United States of America, the daughter of Karan and Casey Starsiak. She is American by nationality and belongs to the white American ethnicity. Nina’s parents divorced when she was still young, resulting in her having seven siblings in her family. We will further explain how they came about in the following paragraphs.
The TV show host completed high school at one of the local schools in her Indiana neighborhood before enrolling to study business and sociology at Indiana University.
By profession, she is a businesswoman and a real estate agent. In 2007, she got a contract for the renovation of a house, which was her first task. She asked for help from her mother who came to give her all possible help. They did a good job and fixed the house. Soon after, they opened their real estate company and named it “Two Chicks and a Hammer”.
To help the growth of her business which is jointly run by her mother, she joined the Twitter platform in 2015 where she announced what they were doing. She gained patronage as well as clients who came to request their services to repair their respective homes. In addition to Twitter, Mina has also joined other social media platforms to reach new audiences. This is how she subscribed to Facebook.
Mina Starsiak’s career that we know her for today began with a phone call from the casting director of HGTV’s new reno show Good Bones after discovering her works through her Facebook profile. She agreed to start a TV show about her home renovations. She co-hosts the show which brings together more than 15 million viewers worldwide with her mother: Karen Laine.
In the show, the mother and daughter duo travel across the United States to find homes that are in dire need of maintenance or renovations in some cases and completely transform them. In some cases, they buy a house, tear it down completely and replace it in the same place as before.
The show was hugely successful in its first season attracting a gigantic fan base which is why its license was renewed for its second season or airing.
Family – father, husband, children
Mina Starsiak’s family tree is quite large and a bit complex, all thanks to her father and mother. That’s not a bad thing, because you’ll find it interesting.
Starsiak’s father, Casey Starsiak had three children with Laine Starsiak, his wife and Mina’s mother before divorcing. After the divorce, Mina’s mother married another man, Randy, with whom she had a daughter, Kelsy. This is her fourth child.
Mina’s father, meanwhile, remarried another woman named Cheryl who bore him two children; Jess and Tad, which gives him five children from his two marriages. Cheryl died and Tad had consequences with his father. So Mina’s father moved in with her to work with her on their construction sites.
Mina’s mother, Laine later divorced her second husband, Randy, as she married another man named Mick. It became her third marriage, which did not last as she also married another man, Roger.
A good thing, the complex family three that is a characteristic of Mina’s direct parents is empty in her own family. She married her sweetheart Stephen Hawk on June 11, 2016 in a lavish wedding ceremony overseen by her mother; a professional events manager and a qualified minister.
She spent a minimoon with her husband in Charleston, SC, followed by their honeymoon in Cabo.
They are the adoptive parents of their daughter named Julie It’s unclear when Julie came into their lives but all I can say about her, from several Instagram photos, is that they love her dearly. ‘love.
