Monica Gallagher is a graphic artist during the daylight hours and a comicker at night. While an animation major at college, Monica first tiptoes onto the scene with her webcomic "Gods and Undergrads", following the awkward adventures of a girl transitioning into college life while simultaneously discovering her connection to the Greek gods. Once her eyes had been opened to the online comics scene, Monica couldn't help herself and continued to produce more work.

A short stint in amateur modeling let Monica to create both an autobiographical story dealing with her troubles with self-esteem (titled Boobage) and a fictional series dealing with a professional model who works part-time as an assassin (Lipstick & Malice). Luckily, Monica emerged from modeling with her boobs and her criminal record intact. In 2010 she released "When I Was a Mall Model", delving into her amateur modeling in depth.

Monica soon discovered something else to become obsessed with and inspired by: roller derby. "Bonnie N. Collide, Nine to Five" is the result of her inspiration, a weekly webomic that combines the superhero side of being a rollergirl with the Clark Kent side of working a day job. Monica just completed her first season as a roller derbyist.

Recently, Monica contributed to Oni Press' roller derby anthology JAM!: Tales from the World of Roller Derby which was released this past June. She is currently working on a full-length graphic novel from Oni.
