Angela sets a high bar when it relates to understanding, positioning and execution of meeting one's objectives and goals. And that includes the goals of someone she is working with as well. Angela's ability to grasp quickly what is needed paired with such great personal skills makes her an asset to any team or company that is fortunate enough to engage her. As many, I found Angela exceptionally capable and pleasure to work with!

Tracey Naidoo

Angela's bubbly personality, clear communication style and attention to detail has aided her in her role at eBucks. She established good relationships with her business partners and was successful in ensuring that these partnerships added reciprocal value to the business. It was a pleasure to work with Ange and I would recommend her to any future employer.
