After she graduated, Gina worked with children at the YMCA, trying to make a positive impact in their lives. She is also active in charities involved in aiding adults with physical and mental disabilities.
Gina: (on how her modeling career helped in her acting career) Having all that responsibility was great for me. I embraced it. It wasn't a challenge. It was just natural. It really helped me when I started acting, because the hours that you work modeling are just crazy and it's just such a huge amount of energy.
Gina: (on the easiest part of working on "Aliens Vs. Predator 2") I think just being there and enjoying it and having fun, because as a fan of B movies, the easy part is for me to sit and enjoy every minute, and be there and be part of something so huge, that's the easiest part, just going to work in the morning and being there, it's so much fun.
Gina: (on how she would like people to see her work 50 years from now; September 2007 interview) I hope that people could just look back and say that's somebody that worked really hard and had a lot of fun and just had a nice steady career and a great work ethic.
