She is the author of "Journey to Nubia and Kemet: Exploring African History, Culture & Contributions," which is the first in her series of textbooks and workbooks on African history, and it was the catalyst for creating the nonprofit organization in 2017. In 2019, Angel penned and published "Journey to the Sea Islands: Gullah Geechee Good!" addressing the African American heritage and culture in the sea island coastal region of the United States and the Caribbean. Angel was formally trained at Howard University and Bowie State University. She has counseled children clinically and provided career counseling for traditional and non-traditional adult students primarily in STEM occupations. Angel has been instrumental in creating and implementing holistic career development interventions that ultimately connected many young adults to employment in various fields, from information technology and cybersecurity to allied healthcare. In her role as Associate Director for Colleges and Universities for a higher education council, she worked with higher education institutions and businesses, nationally. She also participated in the international panel led by United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) on "Rethinking Education," which provided the opportunity to share experiences and successful strategies. Angel's vision is to have the textbooks and program implemented in a variety of educational settings and to continue partnering with schools and organizations to expand programs and resources offered through GJFC, Inc.; and, to stress the importance of positive cultural identity development and cultural literacy for children.view less
