Last year was a great one for Gina as she was named America TeVe’s Account Executive of the Year and one of her successful creatives campaigns for a direct client resulted in an Suncoast Emmy nomination. “Gina is a very industrious and creative person and she is very passionate about her work. Last year, after having experienced a cancellation of an order that was worth millions of dollars, she was able to recoup that same amount by bringing in new business. She was also the creator of our live infomercials and our sales representative of the year,” said Herb Espino, Senior Vice President of Sales.
