VICKI MORGAN
Boss Lady

Having studied to be painter, Vicki now applies her creativity to the ideas and approaches she uses in all her business choices. Her artsy side is indulged with knitting gifts for all her friends and family, drawing, and creating decorative work for her home. Vicki owns her own pinball machine and enjoys pinball league competition as well as Scrabble games with friends. She especially enjoys spending time at her Hudson Valley home with her husband, dogs, and lolling in their hammock with her daughter. After being a sole proprietor for half her career, Vicki has loved these many years of partnership with Gail and especially enjoys the process of writing their 3x3 Magazine "Career Talk" articles together.

GAIL GAYNIN
Boss Lady

Having studied fine art, Gail enjoyed a successful career as a painter before making a transition to the commercial world as a photographer’s representative. Finding that her soul was still in the art world, Gail felt more fulfilled becoming partners with her friend Vicki as illustration agents. In a life brimming with activity, her deepest pleasure comes from close family, two grandchilden, and long time friends. That exceptional art talent remains an active force in renovating an upstate home along the Hudson River. When in the country, Gail enjoys all sorts of outdoor activities, especially playing golf. During the week in New York City, Gail’s takes long, early morning walks in Central Park with her English Setter, River. Raised in a loving, philanthropic family, charitable giving remains an integral part of Gail’s life. The Michael J. Fox Foundation For Parkinson’s Research and The City Of Hope Cancer Research Hospital are especially close to her heart.

KATE KELLY
Consigliera

Kate graduated from Syracuse University with a degree in French Literature, Language and Culture. A classically trained violinist, active crafter, doodler, and world traveler, she is super pleased to bring her varied experiences to Morgan Gaynin. A wonderful writer, Kate serves as our blog-mistress and correspondent extraordinaire. Kate enjoys strolling over the Williamsburg Bridge, fussing with kittens, and, like any good Wisconsinite and Francophile, eating shameful amounts of cheese.

ALICE HOFF
Money Lady

Passion for special effects makeup has kept Alice busy the past 7 years, doing work for film and print in addition to creating sculptures for a variety of projects. Her desire to pursue a career in the art world has pushed her to start the journey in becoming an art teacher. While attending school, she was shocked to discover that she was proficient in math and really enjoyed it! Interest in art and math seemed like a perfect combination for the position of "bookkeeper extraordinaire" at Morgan Gaynin. Outside the office, Alice enjoys hanging out with her 7 year old son, training for her next belt in Hapkido, and figuring out how to grow vegetables on her small deck in Brooklyn.

GABY D'ALESSANDRO
Tech Lady

After studying Fine Art/Illustration at Altos de Chavón in her homeland of the Dominican Republic, Gaby received a scholarship to Parsons School of Design. Upon finishing her bachelor’s degree this semester, Gaby hopes to remain in NYC for at least another year. When she is back in Santo Domingo, Gaby spends lots of time in the ocean trying to improve her surf board technique with instruction from her surfer dad. Since childhood, she has playfully coined her own Spanish words, creating a fun, descriptive lexicon for family and friends. We were fortunate that Gaby joined MGI as an intern last summer, and that she has remained as an invaluable assistant and joyful presence.

SALLY UCCI
Licensing Lady

Sally is developing Morgan Gaynin Inc.'s new licensing division. With a professional background in illustration and design (and many years as an avid consumer), Sally brings a keen eye to product development and licensing. She has a passion for well conceived products and is extremely enthusiastic about bringing our artists' work to the marketplace. After living in NYC for 12 years and DC for 5, Sally has worked her way back down I-95 to Richmond, Va. where she spent the first 18 years of life. When not contemplating "the next big thing", Sally is focused on her own art, her family and planting the occasional tomato plant (while wearing, of course, clever work gloves from a well-designed line of gardening accessories!)
