Biography

Angie is a proven leader, successful entrepreneur, New York Times best-selling author, and a sought-after guide who helps others become the best leaders they know. Angie wasn't born a leader. She became a leader after she graduated from the University of Michigan and earned her commission as a United States Marine Corps Officer, where she was one of only 1,000 women managers in an organization 175,000 strong. Angie endured some of the toughest training on earth to build her leadership and risk-taking skills, which she's applied in her personal and professional life to achieve success. Today, she's honored to share these exact same skills through her work as a keynote speaker, consultant, coach, and advisor inside the world's top organizations. After Angie left active duty in 2001, she rose through the ranks quickly as a pharmaceutical sales representative before transitioning out of corporate America to launch her consultancy, Lead Star, in 2004. Through her business, she's been honored to partner with exceptional clients to include Google, Facebook, Oracle, Boston Scientific, Marathon Oil, Walmart, and many smaller - and equally impressive - small businesses and organizations. Angie's been a featured guest on CNN, FOX News, and CNBC. Her thought leadership has been published in Harvard Business Review, Fast Company, Inc., and Entrepreneur. She's the author of the New York Times Best-Selling SPARK, Leading from the Front, and the soon-to-be released Bet on You, which will be the game-changing book for professionals who are contemplating taking risks in their lives. Angie has an MBA from the Ross School of Business. She's an avid athlete who competes in marathons and triathlons and is never one to turn down a push-up competition. She's also the mom to two great boys and commits a tremendous amount of energy and time to being a super fan at their sporting events.
