Gina was born on January 12, 1970, and was raised in the Peace Country area residing in Sexsmith, AB, where she graduated. Always independent and adventurous, Gina moved to Kelowna, BC, where she enrolled and graduated from hairdressing school than moved to Calgary, AB, to continue her craft and enjoying numerous activities from skiing, rafting, skydiving, to drive-in movies.

Gina was an avid golfer and looked forward to her weekly poker games with her ‘poker friends’, family get togethers, and even some camping.

Gina moved back to Grande Prairie, and promptly opened her own studio in 1997, which she cleverly named Studio 97. She continued this right up until the day she was no longer able too.
