Founder & Black History Historian
Gina Woods
"Classic, timeless, and always with intention. Everything we create is built on a foundation of excellence and an eye for beauty."
Gina is a serial entrepreneur whose journey began with a bail bonds company in 2011, built from $3,000 in savings and turned profitable within its first year.
Known for her extraordinary eye for design, she elevated The Loc Shop, her hair studio on Black Wall Street, with signature "Lux Saturdays": dipped treats, top-shelf offerings, and an eye for detail that transformed a hair appointment into an occasion.
As a historian of the Greenwood District, Gina brings a deep understanding of Black Wall Street's legacy to every journey. Her nurturing spirit and commitment to excellence make her the heart of Black Wall Street Travel.

Our Why
We See You. We Built This For You.
Gina founded Black Wall Street Travel to bring together the commitments that have shaped her life and work: honoring Black history, creating beautiful experiences, and looking after every traveler with care and intention.
She centers Black Wall Street and the Greenwood District because their legacy is a living model of Black vision, resilience, and enterprise. That story grounds each journey and connects travelers to the wider history of the Black diaspora.
On every trip, Gina personally ensures that the experience reflects the same standard she has carried through each of her ventures: thoughtful design, cultural depth, and excellence in every detail. Black history remains central, and working with local Black businesses helps circulate Black wealth in every destination.
