​As an actress and writer, Angela is a sassy mix of humor and heart. She has performed at the Upright Citizen's Brigade Theater and the classic St. George Theatre in New York City. She's penned comedy pilots for television, which HBO affiliates deemed "funny with broad appeal."  Her film and television work includes Oscar winners Al Pacino, Paul Haggis, and Barry Levinson. The Miami Herald touted Angela as an "Actress on the Rise."

Angela founded Charley Bear Productions with a vision to create a shift in perspective, leading to social change, by telling unique & diverse stories showcasing women in front of and behind the camera. Through Charley Bear, Angela wrote, produced, and starred in 2018 Live Action Oscar Contender, Without Grace, opposite Emmy Winner Ann Dowd and Hollywood veteran John Doman. Angela portrays the title character, Grace, a woman coping with bipolar disorder via substance misuse, with heartfelt vulnerability. The film qualified for the 90th Annual Academy Awards and released on Amazon after a successful charitable fundraiser for NAMI.

She’s also an annual state judge for Directing Change, a mental health centered program for teens providing peer support via the creation of public service films.

Angela teamed up with the glowmedia project to produce and direct Unimaginable, a short documentary on the effect of COVID on teen mental health. Their partnership has expanded to include a PSA for teens to use art as a positive coping tool, supported by MTV, iHeartMedia, and PBS Socal, Creatively Coping with Covid, and an educational film on suicide prevention.
