Born in Toronto. Raised in Edmonton. Living in Vancouver.

My name is Angel. I have worked in the entertaiment industry in Vancouver for the last 7 years. It has been an amazing journey and looking forward to many more adventures.

The goal with my career is to make positive contributions for innovative companies in an office administration and/or production assistant role in the film, television, animation, & VFX indsutry.

My career has been divded in 3 categories:

Production

• I have been an office production assistant, production supervisor, on-set production assistant, talent wrangler, executive assistant, and a game tester (yes. it is an actual job and kind of fun).
• During this time, met a lot celebrities and enjoyed the diverse circus-like but exciting working environments.

Education

• A passion of mine is working with youth and teens in the digital arts.
• Over 5 years work experience as a facilitator, film & video game design instructor, and program director.
• Worked alongside such established companies like The Director's Cut, Digital Media Academy, and ID Tech.
• With these great working opportunities, I have been able to travel all over Canada & US and met many brilliant young minds.

Artist

Finally, I moonlight as a filmmaker. When time permitting, I like to collaborate with other creatives to make entertaining content. My body of short film works won festival awards and aired on national television. I enjoy making comedy and horror films. Ultimately, I love being part of team and the creative process.
