Angela is dedicated to making a difference in the lives of those with health & weight concerns. This dedication has its roots in Angela's childhood when she struggled with her weight and self-image. Angela developed bulimia, an eating disorder during her teenage years. Due to the seriousness of this disease, she was hospitalized in 1987 and again in 1990 for three-month durations. It was through these two treatment centers and years of counseling that Angela was finally able to integrate eating healthy, a positive self-image and physical activity into her life and start living a healthy lifestyle. As Angela battled with bulimia she was inspired to get schooled in the field of health. Angela received her A.S. degree in Dietetics at a community college in W.P.B. Fl. and in 1990 she became registered with the American Dietetic Association as a Dietetic Technician. In 1993 Angela received a B.S. degree in Exercise and Sport Science from the University of Florida. Following graduation, Angela developed the concept behind Total Nutrition Technology, Inc. (TNT). She initially opened for business in 1993 in Statesboro, Georgia. In 1997, she relocated to Charlotte, NC. She has expanded her program into many of the Charlotte fitness centers and in 2002 Angela developed her own licensing program, Proactive Health and Nutrition, for Health Educators, Personal Trainers, and Dietitians desiring to offer the same services in other states.
Angela is currently the media spokesperson for the American Heart Association in the Greater Charlotte area, and is frequently called upon by many of the local television stations for her expertise in health and fitness. In 2003 Angela was brought on board with Elan Digital Media, a company specializing in media content development, as a consultant for their line of health management software and products. In 2004 Angela signed on with WellCall, one of the nations leading corporate health management companies, as a Health Presenter for local Corporate WellCall clients. Angela is currently working towards her Masters in Exercise Physiology and pursuing her certification as an Eating Disorder Specialist. Her future plans are aimed toward developing an eating disorder program through TNT.
Today, Angela personally maintains her healthy lifestyle by participating in weekly activities, such as cycling, running, pilates and weight training. She has also competed in various sports such as marathons, Ta-Kwon-Do and the NPC figure shows. Angela is dedicated to educating others about weight and health management problems through one-on-one counseling, workshops, presentations and health fairs.
