Born and raised in Mexico, Gina Carrera grew up immersed in a food-centric environment, with her family owning a winery and food processing plant. Her parents’ culinary passion inspired her to pursue a career in cooking, starting with baking and candy-making at a young age. After teaching confectionery classes to children for a few years, she transitioned to a career in Architecture but always dreamed of opening a cooking school.
After moving to Texas, 20+ years ago, Chef Gina spent time traveling the world, collecting recipes and experiences from diverse cultures. This fueled her vision of a cooking school focused on scratch-made dishes using real ingredients, while emphasizing the cultural experience of cooking. With locations in Central Texas, today, she runs her schools, teaching both young and old, while continuing to travel and enrich her students with global culinary experiences.

Meet Skip Richter, the host of GardenLine and get all your gardening questions answered!

His expertise encompasses horticulture, garden education, garden writing, and a deep passion for horticultural photography.
Skip received his master’s degree in horticulture from Texas A&M University, “the source of all earthly knowledge”, and has served as a county horticulturist with Texas AgriLife Extension for 34 years in Montgomery, Travis, Harris, and Brazos County, advising home gardeners and the green industry on research-based horticultural practices. He has served as the National Gardening Association’s regional horticulturist for the southeastern U.S. and is a contributing editor to Texas Gardener magazine.
