Angie was raised in Brookline, MA and graduated from Brookline High School in 1988.
In 1996 she graduated magna cum laude from St. Joseph's College in Standish, ME.   
She truly understands the challenges of paying for a college education. It took her eight
years to earn her degree, working two jobs while taking a full load of classes.  She
would take alternating semesters off to work three jobs to save for the following
semester. After all of that, she still has student loans to repay, and had to work two jobs
until she was 30 years old.

Angie spent many school vacations with her Dad who was the State House reporter for
a radio station in Boston. There she learned about the inner workings of state
government, and what legislators were expected to do for their constituents. She also
worked on several smaller campaigns, knocking on doors and calling voters.

She has worked as an Office Manager for an all-boys camp on Sebago Lake in Maine,
as a Public Services Associate for the American Camp Association that accredits
summer camps, and as an Office Manager for a start-up digital strategy company in
Boston, MA. At this job she had to manage a company that grew from five employees to
40 in less than two years, manage the build-out of a 9,000 sq. ft. space, and assist with
marketing, scheduling and 40 different personalities. It was here that she proved she
could facilitate cohesiveness given a wide variety of views.
