The 'all girls' school Gina attended during her formative years of schooling professed a strong educational and ethical philosophy which remained with her throughout her life. It is this foundation along with her quiet strength which has directed her course of study to Education. She has a passion and desire for the development of young people.

Gina’s interest strongly lies in the area of Health, Nutrition and Wellness, as she feels the need to educate people on healthier ways to achieve holistic well-being. Her main focus, through education is to encourage persons to make empowered choices with respect to their health and lifestyle. This is an area she feels is sadly ignored as reflected in the growing obesity in our country.

Gina’s quest for academic excellence continues as she plans to engage in research and pursue a Doctorate in the near future.
