"Creative and resourceful, Gina is a talented designer who makes a great package more than the sum of its parts, and who, in a pinch, makes magic out of the mundane."

"Gina is a great asset to our news operations. She's creative, innovative and forward-thinking. She has a knack for clever, engaging design and has led our efforts to improve the presentation of our newspapers... Gina has also embraced a larger role in our organization, leading a multi-newspaper committee to develop strategies for reaching young readers and by contributing to our newly formed custom publications department (she writes a regular column for our new Inland Living Magazine). Gina has also taken on a mentoring role with younger and less experienced designers. Her talent and enthusiasm are reflected not just in her own work, but in their work as well."
