Her journey began as a grassroots leader in St. Paul, Minnesota, and has since evolved into a distinguished career leading organizations across Wisconsin, Virginia, and Georgia. Currently, she provides strategic consultancy to Gamaliel affiliates in Michigan, Tennessee, and Pennsylvania.

A specialist in racial equity and leadership development, Angela is the Director of N’tosake, Gamaliel’s premier women’s leadership program, where she designs curriculum to empower women for 21st-century civic engagement.
