Gino is excited to call Milwaukee his new home. He worked in Green Bay at an NBC affiliate for six years as the weekend meteorologist. He covered the largest snowstorm in 100 years, resulting in 2 feet of accumulation and assisted his chief meteorologist with numerous wall-to-wall tornado and severe thunderstorm coverage.

When Gino is not working, he loves to spend his time outside staying active, whether it is hiking, biking, nature photography, or his favorite sport, playing tennis.
