About
My name is Gina and I’m a UX professional. After a decade of working in the nonprofit education sector as a marketing-communications specialist, I switched careers to UX. I currently work at a for-profit, SaaS company that serves the events and hospitality industries. When I’m not working, you can find me either engrossed in a book, writing a story, walking around the city, or riding my bike Rocinante (from Don Quixote but The Expanse works, too).
