In the off-season she covered regional life for newspapers in states such as Indiana, Florida, Washington and the District of Columbia. Topics ran the gamut, from sustainability to economic development and diversification and tasks included everything from rock climbing to traveling on former President Bill Clinton’s tour bus. |

Gina graduated from Indiana University with a degree in journalism and history and a minor in Spanish. When she’s not working, she loves hiking in the mountains, riding bikes, and exploring other splendors of the Northwest with her husband and two children, age 7 and 3.
