-What is the most common misperception about modeling?
The most common misperception about modeling is that Models lack intelligence & the only thing they are good at is standing around looking pretty. I am a very intelligent individual, I've taught myself alot and continue to do so. I love reading books and i never get tired of learning. Modeling consists of many things like patience, a great personality & creativity. It also helps many people conquer certain insecurities.

-Your profile says you will be studying abroad. Which countries are you looking at?
Yes! Traveling has always been a dream of mine. I want to travel to eygpt & India, I have been teaching myself arabic and hindi so when the day comes i could attempt conversations. I also want to travel to South Africa, I really want to expierence the wild life. I have an incredible love for animals of all sorts, they are some of the reason to why i've been a vegetarian.

-If you could choose to be the lead model in any music video, it would be... A lead model in any music video?
Well honestly, I'm EXTREMELY shy in front of the camera. But I would definitly love to work with a band called "Rise against", alot of they're videos send out messages that the world as a whole tends to overlook. Our society is raised by the media, it gives alot of people mixed and untrue messages, i admire this band for using they're power for something bigger than what they are and expressing it through music that we all can listen to.

-Do you prefer shooting implied photos or expressed images?
Expressed photos all the way, I am a very expressive person so anytime I have the opportunity to express myself I never hesitate.

-The best thing about Gia that no one knows about is...
I'm a really chill person & I like to get to know people- I'm like one of the guys but alot of people judge me and create a character that I'm not. I don't drink or smoke but I definitly can find other ways of having fun. I'm pretty spontanious & I love learning new things on my skateboard and BMX Bike.
