        Angela was the best professor I’ve had when it comes to broadcast journalism. I was in her Advanced Audio and Visual Journalism class when I was a Sophomore at Emerson College. Not only did the class challenge me and grow my journalism skills to make sure I was well rounded, but the way Angela taught the class made sure we understood how modern journalism works and what was currently happening in the industry. Angela was also my advisor for our student newsroom. Her and I worked very closely on our weekly newscasts as well as coverage for Election Night, President Inauguration of Donald Trump, Oscars, Emmys, and Spring Training. Her guidance made sure we were prepared out in the field and turned the best stories we could. All of this experience and the tools I’ve gained from Angela’s teaching have helped me in my journalistic career. When I graduated Emerson she followed my work as I started in my first market in Des Moines, IA. She still does the same now in my current and second market in Tampa, FL. I can confidently say she has molded the journalist I’ve become today and always pushes me to be better. Her future students should know they will have an amazing professor to teach them the ropes and an even better mentor and friend. I would 100% recommend Angela for any position she chooses to pursue!  Erin Farley
      
          



            
              
        
              
  

    
        I was lucky enough to have Angela as a professor and mentor while at Emerson College. She always made herself available to students and provided the important feedback I needed to make my resume and reel standout when looking for a job. Whenever I had a career question, I knew I could go to Angela. And the best part, she always told me the truth and helped to guide me in the right direction. We still stay in contact to this day!
