Location Kentucky, United States
Introduction I am a licensed Private Investigator specializing in violent crimes investigations. I am also a full time university student studying to become a Forensic Anthropologist. In addition, I work as an independent Victims Advocate. I am currently in the process of launching a website dedicated to cold case missing persons and homicides, www.StillTheySpeak.com. I am also a motivational/inspirational public speaker, relaying my journey through tragedy to triumph and the joys of finding my place in this world to groups of all sizes. In addition to all of the "hats" that I wear, I am the mother of five beautiful and vivacious children. Last year my husband of nearly seventeen years abandoned our marriage and our five children. Throughout the grief and loss that has been so much a part of the past year I have found and continue to find that hope refuses to be silent and that where there is love there is always light. May you be blessed, touched, and inspired by the words you read here and may they help you follow your own inner light. Always Light, Always Life, Always Love.... Gin Braden

Favorite Music My absolute favorite "group" is the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Unbelieveable stuff. I crank it up and let it just completely wash over me. Other than that, I am all over the place as far as musical interests go. I am just as likely to listen to 80's rock as I am Beethoven, or new pop. If I like it, I like it regardless of who does it or what genre it is.
Favorite Books Way too many to list here. Here's a few favorites: The Art of Possibility, Teasing Secrets from the Dead, The Hiding Place, Write it Down & Make it Happen, Anything written by Dean Koontz
