Student Equipment Services Staff

Gina Brinker

Manager, Student Equipment Services

Gina Brinker has staffed the media equipment cages at the Metropolitan and Western campuses for more than 17 years, working her way up from work-study student to College-wide manager of Student Equipment Services.

Gina earned two associate degrees from Tri-C before moving on to Full Sail University, where she graduated with a bachelor’s degree in digital cinematography. She is currently pursuing a master’s degree in instructional design. Suffice to say, she enjoys learning!

She encourages Tri-C students to embrace education — with all its challenges — and to push through into their futures.

Jessica Orahoske

Media Arts Technician, West Campus

Jessica grew up in Garfield Heights, Ohio.

In her senior year, she wrote that she wanted to be a professional photographer. Shortly after graduating, she discovered she had a talent. Typing at 95 WPM, she decided to pursue medical transcription. Jessica did not consider photography until realizing that a “normal” 9-5 career wasn’t her gig. 

Out of impulse she quit her job and purchased a camera...the same day! She decided to take classes at Tri-C as a networking opportunity.

Before graduating from Tri-C, she already threw herself to the sharks in the commercial world, competing for assisting jobs. Her first gig was with Kalman and Pabst. Upon graduation she became a regular assistant with BurkleHagen.

Outside of the commercial world, she enjoys doing work in multiple facets of photography and has grown quite the network. 

She describes the true reason for her employment at Tri-C is to give back to the community! In the near future, Jessica will be opening up opportunities for Tri-C students to assist her onsite.

Adam Racinskas

Media Arts Technician, Metropolitan Campus

Adam has been interested in audio recording and photography since childhood. At CSU Adam took TV production classes.

Adam worked at Channel 8 for a short time, has freelanced, and has been working at Tri-C for over 20 years. He also has a creative flair for building supporting items for the cage.

Devon Whitehouse

Media Arts Technician, Metropolitan Campus

Devin received her BFA in theatre at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign with a concentration in stage management. She has always been fascinated with how things work behind the scenes. While lighting and production are her main focus she has dabbled with many different areas of film making. Being able to help students bring their projects to life is her favorite part about working in the Student Equipment Cage.
