Gina Sellers was born on April 13th, 1977 in Rochester, New York to Linda Senkus and the late Thomas Imbastaro. She moved to Michigan in her early teens and graduated from Delton-Kellogg High School in Delton, Michigan in 1995. Gina worked as a certified optician in Kalamazoo, Michigan until making a move to Texas in 1999.

After several years with Extraco, she joined Melanie Housden at her Financial Advisor office and worked with her for 10 years. In 2017, Gina took a leap of faith and followed her dream to open a restaurant in Gatesville, Texas called the Knife & Cork. Even being shut down temporarily from a fire and going through the challenges of the pandemic, Gina created a very successful restaurant that thrived until her illness caused her to have to close it. Gina was passionate about life, family, food, her hedgehog Olive, and giving back to her communities. She loved feeding people and helping people in any way she could. Gina married Miles Sellers on March 10th, 2001. They have lived in Hamilton, Texas throughout their time together.
