With a mom who wasn’t ready to relinquish her party lifestyle, eight-year-old Gina was thrust into a world of alcoholism, drugs, sex, and molestation. Abandoned by daily parental guidance, she was forced to fend for herself and navigate a world that brought more darkness than security.
As her childhood was scraped away bit-by-bit, Gina held true to something within that guided her, a light that burned brighter once a brief interaction with a stranger connected her with the truth. Everything will be okay.
The Parakeet Drawing is a powerful memoir about the ripple effects of a small act of kindness, and how it helped one little girl find the strength within to save herself.

After one term in the Air Force and a brief stint as a stay at home mom, Gina has built a successful leadership career in the insurance and financial services industry. She also serves in the non-profit arena, speaking on leadership skills and principles for various organizations. Her proudest success, however, is being the mother to her three adult daughters.
