Bio
Sarah Waddell
Angela is one of the hardest-working, most creative, and kindest people I have ever worked with. Her bubbly and cheerful spirit is contagious and uplifts every team she works with. She is a quick problem solver and easily adapts to whatever the job or the situation requires. Angela's depth of knowledge, skill set, and willingness to keep learning and growing makes her an asset to whatever team is lucky enough to have her!
Liam Collins
Angela is an absolute joy of a person to work with and be around. She’s a go-getter who is responsible for most of the positive energy in the workplace. During my time working with Angela, she was always willing to lend a helping hand to newer reporters and producers. Most of all, she was simply an incredibly pleasant person to be around, which I believe is a heavily underrated asset to have on a team. She would excel in any environment, no matter the task, due to her positive attitude and extremely dedicated work ethic.
