Where Vision Gets Its Voice

For over a decade, Girl Squad Media has been the creative engine behind the stories that shape stadiums, brands, and movements.

The story
Behind the squad.

Founded by Monica Linda, a down-home Texas girl with an obsession for branding, Girl Squad Media started with a simple belief: every brand deserves a media team that shows up like your reputation depends on it.

What began as a mission to remove the anxiety and overwhelm of marketing for entrepreneurs has evolved into a full-service production powerhouse. When Shell Lewis joined as co-founder, they built something bigger: uniting storytelling and production under one roof, blending cinematic artistry with operational excellence.

Together, Monica and Shell created a certified women-, veteran-, and LGBTQ-owned company rooted in a core philosophy: we are a sisterhood of women supporting women. We believe in a life lived deliberately, in embracing each other, and in defining our own success. When we fall, we get up. Every. Single. Time.

Through our sister brand, Oh SnapTastic Activations, we've expanded our creative reach to design interactive fan experiences that merge technology, spectacle, and shareability, turning audiences into participants and brands into unforgettable moments.
