She created XX Chromes – All Women Bike Builders, a team of motorcycle mechanic gals who builds a motorcycle in the name of charity!

Another job description she has is working for a local Indian Motorcycle dealership as their Event Marketing Director. Gina has put together some huge motorcycle events in and around Chicago and places like Daytona Bike Week, Sturgis Motorcycle Rally and Laconia Motorcycle Week to name a few. She has collaborated with other big name promoters as Jam Productions, Live Nation, Paragon Promotions and many more.
