A photo of me, by me.

Hi there! My name is Angela, and I am a designer, photographer, and educator based in Queens, New York. I am currently a Presentation Designer for the Goat Agency, the world’s leading social-first marketing agency, where I design engaging presentations and digital assets for some of the largest companies in the world.

I was previously a Design and Community Engagement Fellow at the Dyckman Farmhouse Museum, where my performance as an intern earned me a full-time position at the museum.

I am a graduate of Fordham University with a BA in New Media and Digital Design and a minor in Visual Arts. I am skilled in type and layout, social media content creation, brand identity, and book jacket design. In addition to my design and layout skills, I have eight years of photography experience, with an emphasis on portraiture, theatre, and athletics photography.

In addition to my interest in the fields of design and photography, I am also interested in advocacy and education.
