Angela began modeling after her mother had her astrology chart done and the reading said that a career in modeling would be very lucrative for Angela.  Her first modeling job was in Seventeen Magazine and the reading proved to be true as Angela moved to New York City and began modeling for Bill Blass.  She moved to Paris when she was 19 and traveled around Europe modeling. She spent a lot of time in Milan, Italy where she worked for designers like Giorgio Armani and graced the pages of many Italian fashion magazines.  Upon returning to New York from Europe , Angela worked for years for major catalogs from Bloomingdales to Macys until moving to Los Angeles in 1996 to pursue an acting career.
