Gina Nguyen

You can find me writing and creating with the AOL Shopping team as an editor, programming manager, Photoshop-ist, UI designer, video-maker and evangelist.

My premier loves are music, art and food. I also love to travel and collect new experiences in the context of other cultures and landscapes. I dream of visiting Italy. I love beauty and making things beautiful through design, dress-up, crafting, music, painting or drawing. Ancient history continually intrigues me and the sciences (psychology, biology, astronomy) constantly spark my imagination. I love to learn from books, television and the Internet as much as I love to learn from others. I am an extremely curious type and am forever searching for answers. My epicenter of strength and foundation of love is my family.

For activity, I enjoy people-watching, accidental discoveries, adventurous strolls to who-knows-where, yoga, swimming/flip-turns, nature hikes, Zumba, dancing on a whim, weekend romps in NYC and hearty laughs. I also dig bodyboarding at the beach and one day aim to pick up surfing.
