Gina Colovich is the Executive Director at the Water for Wildlife Foundation and the One-Shot Past Shooters Club. She became the Executive Director in 2024 and is working to bring the Foundation to new audiences via podcasts, videos and other online venues while still promoting the experience people get in the Wildlife Discovery Center & Evans-Dahl Museum. Gina grew up in Wyoming and moved to Utah to finish her B.A. in Public Relations at the University of Utah. She worked for fifteen years at the Salt Lake Convention & Visitors Bureau where she moved from being an Administrative Assistant to Director of Technical Services. She loved learning the IT part of her job! As a lifelong learner, she then had to learn accounting when she moved back to Wyoming and took a position at Lowham Engineering as the Office Manager where she worked until 2013 when she started her own business.
In her free time, Gina loves to travel, cook and explore the Wind River Mountains in her backyard. Recent travels have taken her to Ireland, Scotland, New Orleans, Greece and Cuba. Middle Eastern dishes are her newest cooking passion.
