Hi, I'm Angela!👋🏻 I’ve been a writer for as long as I could hold a pencil. I’m happiest when I'm building relationships, empowering others, and cuddling with my dog. I’ve explored 33 countries so far and am always looking forward to my next adventure!✈️

Before pivoting into tech, I was an elementary educator for 8 years. I even established an international school in Europe! Living and working abroad really strengthened my confidence, empathy, and self-awareness.🌎

I’m a self-starter with a growth mindset and can-do attitude. I believe everything is “figureoutable”. I enjoy being creative and taking risks. My love of writing, personal branding, and community building led me to marketing. 

I’ve worked at 2 startups: one in education and one in B2B SaaS. Though I’ve worn many hats, at my core I’m a storyteller and brand strategist who believes in relationship-led growth.🤝

As a lifelong learner, I’m always eager to tackle new challenges and add new tools to my tool belt! My greatest strengths are communication, collaboration, adaptability, and perseverance. I strive to have a positive impact on the lives of others and to leave the world a better place than I found it.✨

I saw a post this week basically saying people should accept every LinkedIn connection request they get.😳

Their argument was it “takes 0.3 seconds and costs nothing”.

And I totally get where that sentiment comes from.

But here’s something a lot of people don’t know: LinkedIn has a 30,000 connection limit.
 Once you hit it, that’s it.
No more connections. No exceptions.

If I accepted every single invite I received, I would have reached the limit a good year or two ago.

Here’s why I’m selective (and why it’s okay if you are too):

→ I want a network that’s meaningful. A network where people engage, support, collaborate, comment, share, and learn from each other.

→ If I connect with hundreds of random, irrelevant profiles that never interact or aren’t aligned with anything I do, those spots are now gone. And they could’ve gone to people who would’ve genuinely benefited from being here (and vice versa).

It’s not about being “exclusive.” It’s not about thinking you’re better than anyone else.
 It’s about treating your LinkedIn network like the limited resource it actually is.

You only get 30k of these little slots. Make them count.🎯

So no, you don’t have to accept every invite.
In fact, I urge you NOT to.
 Curate your space. Protect the quality of your network.
 Say “no” when something or someone doesn’t align.

Because LinkedIn works best when connections are intentional, not random.

So, how do you decide who to accept on LinkedIn?👀

Yesterday, my amazing father turned 70 years old. My sister and I drove down to Savannah to surprise him.🥰

And last night, my mom pulled off the surprise party of the year! He had NO idea.

My sister and I read him this poem:

“Tonight we’re celebrating seventy years of you,
Our favorite guy, we’re grateful for all you do

You're one of nine, and it's a motley crew,
Smack in the middle, of course you're the glue

From caddying on the golf course to selling at USG,
Solving crosswords in the man cave is where you like to be

From Disney to Wildwood and The Great White's big thrill,
So many memories made, we're collecting them still

You’re happiest with Gina, your partner for life,
Thirty-eight years strong — best friend and wife

You're "Poppy" to Elle Jae, who loves you so much,
Golf cart rides and belly rubs — she can't get enough

We appreciate your handyman skills and financial advice,
Knowing you are always there to help is really nice

Whether you're golfing, bowling, or singing "Maggie May",
You're the life of the party in every single way

You’ve taught us humor, hard work, loyalty, and grace,
And most importantly, family always comes in first place

We hit the jackpot having you as our dad,
You're the best role model we could ever have

We’re lucky beyond measure, and blessed each year,
Happy 70th, Dad — we’re so glad you’re here!”❤️

SOOO grateful for my dad, the greatest guy I know. He always supports me and my endeavors. And I’m grateful that being my own boss means I can show up for the people who mean everything to me, wherever and whenever.🥹

Today was my 4th live speaking event since launching my own business 11 weeks ago!🎙️

I sat on an "Inside the Interview" panel and had so much fun talking about personal branding and leveraging LinkedIn to stand out and attract opportunities.

One of the biggest takeaways I shared: the interview starts wayyy before you walk into the room.🚶🏻‍♀️

Recruiters and hiring managers are checking your LinkedIn profile, forming opinions, and deciding if you're the right fit before you ever say a word.

Your online presence is part of your interview now.

Whether you want a job, client, investor, or partner — make sure your LinkedIn profile is working FOR you, 24/7!

An interview is a moment in time. Your personal brand is forever. Your presence here shouldn’t be an afterthought.

Big thanks to the UNC Charlotte Career Center for having me and to the students who showed up with great questions!🙌🏻

Yesterday, a founder and CEO posted something on LinkedIn that I couldn’t disagree more with.
...Did you see it too?🤯

They shared 5 LinkedIn actions that will “instantly disqualify candidates”.

And I sincerely hope they only posted it to get a rise out of people and boost engagement.

Because if this is actually how a founder and CEO thinks? We’re all doomed.

I won’t share all five. Three of them were just “eh.”

But here are the two that made my skin crawl: 1️⃣ Using perfect grammar in your posts 2️⃣ Having the “Open to Work” banner turned on

They went on to say two people with similar backgrounds applied to their company.
 One had the “Open to Work” banner on and wrote well on LinkedIn. The other had a three-line bio (which, I guess, we’re supposed to assume had grammar mistakes?).😅

The second person supposedly got the interview.

They ended their post by saying your LinkedIn profile isn’t a resume (true) and that hiring managers want stories and proof you’re a real person doing real work (also true).

But having good grammar and the courage to put yourself out there as a jobseeker has nothing to do with any of that.

It blew my mind that I could agree with this person on some things and disagree so strongly on others.

So if you’re job searching right now, pleaseee don’t let posts like that make you feel small.

Take every hot take with a grain of salt (or in this case, a bucket full!).🧂

There’s nothing wrong with writing well. And there’s absolutely NOTHING wrong with being “Open to Work.” 

You’re allowed to show up as yourself and still be taken seriously. In fact, that’s what LinkedIn is all about.

And honestly, if a founder’s first instinct is to judge someone for using correct grammar or being transparent about their job search, that says a lot more about THEM than it does about you.🙄

*steps off soapbox*

Three and a half years ago, I was burnt out and ready for a change. I had NO IDEA LinkedIn would change my life.🤯
 I was an elementary school teacher. 8 years and 2 degrees under my belt.

I had zero tech experience and no network outside of education. I didn't know what my options were.

So I did the only thing I could think of: I started showing up on LinkedIn.

I was still teaching full-time. Working with kids all day, then coming home and posting on LinkedIn at night.✍️

I shared my thoughts on education and the job market. I wrote about my life, my dog, and how I lived abroad and established an international school. I talked about resigning but not knowing what was next. 

I was honest, consistent, and genuinely myself. I didn't hold back or worry about what others would think of me.🤷🏻‍♀️

And slowly, things started to happen:
→ I built a network of 15K+ people in 6 months → Founders and hiring managers started reaching out → People I'd never met were messaging me about opportunities → I landed 3 inbound job offers within 100 days of leaving teaching

10 months after I started showing up on LinkedIn, I started a new career in tech and marketing. I nearly doubled my salary and went from in-person to remote.

But leveraging LinkedIn led to SO👏MUCH👏MORE👏 than a new career. 
Freelance clients. Podcast features. Speaking gigs. Paid brand partnerships.  And now? I run my own business helping founders, entrepreneurs, and execs build the same kind of personal brand that changed everything for me.

I'm not where I am because I'm special (though my mom might tell you that). I'm here because I showed up consistently, shared my story, and built real relationships.

I was myself.💁🏻‍♀️

So if you're thinking about building your personal brand but don't know where to start — trust me, I've been there.

And I can help you figure it out.

You don’t need to post every single day to build authority. Consistency > frequency.

Instead, focus on:
 ✔️ Sharing practical insights your audience can actually use
 ✔️ Engaging with other people’s posts and adding value where you can
 ✔️ Showing your personality and telling your story

The right content, shared consistently, will get you noticed WAY more than daily posts that feel forced. Don’t be afraid to be vulnerable.

Don’t post for the sake of posting.🙅🏻‍♀️
It shouldn’t be a box to check each day.

On LinkedIn, you can’t (and shouldn’t) write for “everyone”.
You’re writing for your target audience. Your “people”.

So keep your unique value at the forefront.
Your skills, your experiences, your perspectives.

Your story.📖

YOU are the differentiator. 
Lean into that. Own it.💪🏻

You’ve got this!!!
