About Angela
Imagine a fierce fashion designer meeting adventurous America’s sweetheart, or a troubled villain encountering a well-mannered romantic sister. Think Anne Hathaway meets Sandra Bullock, or Cardi B meets Jennifer Lopez. What ties these together? Range. I’m not a villain, but I can make you empathize with one. Trained to live truthfully under imaginary circumstances, I strive to embody the experiences of Dominican women from the Bronx, showcasing both pain and beauty. As a multi-hyphenated artist, I aim to use my acting and writing to be a powerful voice for Latina women, so I may discover and define my own voice.
