Location
University of Virginia (Charlottesville campus)
A sprawling collegiate campus that registers as the formative crucible of Gina Toscano’s professional identity: classrooms and parade grounds where classroom rigor meets military discipline. Memory hangs in the air—early mornings of drill, the weight of issued gear, mentors calibrating standards—shaping a protector who moves with quiet expectation. The site functions narratively as origin, shorthand for training, loyalty, and the moral architecture that informs Gina’s conduct under presidential scrutiny.
