Hi, I'm Gina.

I'm a designer working across hardware and software. My background is in industrial design (RISD BFA), but most of the hardware products I've worked on came with a screen or a system behind them, so I also learned to do digital product design to become better at creating more holistic experiences.

Previously, I co-founded a hardware design studio called Spatial Dynamics where I was the managing partner and design lead for four years, and most recently I led a seven-person design team through multiple leadership transitions at MARA.

When it comes to design, I take the logical approach. I believe it is important to be able to articulate the reasoning behind every decision, and trace each choice back to a constraint, a user need, or a business reason.

Currently based in LA. If you'd like to work together, please reach out.
