Gayle Zinda has a unique and diverse back round in the medical community. Gayle began her career as a surgical scrub nurse for a plastic surgeon. She later moved on to become a nurse administrator for an ob/gyn group. It was during this time she began to feel unfulfilled, something was missing and after a “chance” encounter with a woman named Rita her life's path would be forever changed as well as the thousands of patients who would walk through Gayle's shop Image –In –Sights over the next ten years. Image – In – Sights provided a place for cancer patients to come and be refreshed. Weather they needed a hair or breast prostheses, skin care or make up or even just a positive voice to help them through the day, Gayle was there. During these ten years Gayle managed to also save the local branch of the American Cancer Society serving as the volunteer President for three years and inspiring thousands of new volunteers. And if being a female business owner with no prior business experience was not enough she was raising two boys on her own. She received the Northern Kentucky Chamber of Commerce “Small Business Success Award” in 1997 and was a “Bazillion Award” winner and graduate of Leadership Northern KY. Gayle released her first book Pink Lemonade in 2007 and has since received two national awards for the inspirational/motivational category. Just prior to releasing her first book Gayle heard the words “You have lung cancer” true to form and drawing on the strength of the thousands of patients she had motivated over the years, Gayle is now a two year survivor of the deadliest cancer! In November 2007 Gayle was asked by the Lung Cancer Alliance out of Washington D.C. to re design her RV and do a 10 city tour on their behalf. Gayle and Adam traveled over 5,000 miles in 30 days to bring awareness to Lung Cancer. In 2008 Gayle received the Professional Business Woman of the Year Award in Madison, WI. Today Gayle travels the country with her oldest son Adam in a 31' Pink RV called the “Motorvator” raising cancer awareness and “refreshing” groups around the country. When she is not traveling Gayle lives on a sparking lake in WI with her husband Dr. Michael Zinda who is a radiation oncologist and medical director of a cancer center and provides yet another perspective to add to Gayle's arsenal on cancer.
