GROWING UP SHY

  • Gina is from suburban Kansas
  • She was kind of goofy but also shy
    • Loved music and performing but was still a bit scared and nerdy
  • Not the “hot chick” in high school like she is now
  • Gina was pretty intimidated by everyone for most of her childhood
  • Life got terrifying in middle school
    • Got much more insecure during this time
    • So overwhelming for her
  • She attended University of Kansas for college!
    • Pursued theater (Hair) was her first production
    • Doing all of this theater and performing helped her come out of her shell
  • Came to LA after and worked radio
    • Gained a lot of strength from this hard work
    • Saw what she was made of and what she was capable of, too
    • Worked crazy hours and drove all around doing very difficult work
  • Success does not come easily most of the time
    • Work hard, you can do it!
