Brief Biographical Sketch:

Hi! My name is Gina and I am a senior in the Computer Science department. I have many interests outside of CS, which include travelling, learning new languages, and watching unhealthy amounts of television. I recently returned from a semester abroad at Queen Mary, University of London, so now I like to think of myself as an expert on all things British (even though I'm really not).
