Hi, I'm Angie

My memoir, Girl in the Spotlight, is out now.

For the woman who has started to question the life she worked so hard to build.
The most important work isn’t the image of success you construct on the outside. It’s learning to trust yourself enough to create a life that feels true to you.

Girl in the Spotlight: A Memoir
Publishers Weekly BookLife Editor’s Pick
By age 25, I had everything I was supposed to want—a career in television, a college sweetheart, a life that looked exactly right from the outside. Then I started to question all of it.
"Girl in the Spotlight" is the story of arriving at a crossroads, getting lost in the darkness, and finding your way back home. It’s about breaking cycles, letting go of the life you performed, and learning to trust yourself—maybe for the first time.
Now available in print and audio, read by the author.

The story that started it all
By age 25 I was the morning news anchor at the top TV station in my hometown. From the outside, everything looked exactly right.
Then one night, driving home from a breaking news story at 4am, I stared at the clock and asked myself: What are you doing? Why are
you working this hard, and for what?
That moment changed everything. Two decades later I’m still writing about life on the other side.
