Angie is a Utah native and came to UAN straight from kid wrangling at an afterschool program in the Salt Lake Valley. She has a strong passion for making childcare and afterschool programming accessible, affordable, and enriching. In high school, Angie started volunteering for local youth organizations and soon realized the awesome power and importance of having safe spaces for kids to explore themselves and the world around them. Since then, she has worked with every age group from the tiniest of humans to the practically adults as a teacher, mentor, group facilitator, and role model.
Angie received her Masters Degree in Human Development and Social Policy from the University of Utah. She loves people-watching and has a ferocious curiosity about life. She especially loves talking with kids about how they see the world and hearing the hilarious things they have to say.
In her free time, Angie loves writing, baking, horror movies, and going on adventures with her husband and son.
Favorite beverage: Coffee (Black or with cream and sugar, hot or iced, large or larger quantities, and especially if it comes with a pastry.)
