I am a horrible liar. In middle school, I lied about wearing a coat to school of which my mother read my face and walked over to the hall closet revealing my coat that I “wore” to school untouched. My thoughts come across my face. Botox helps but when it wears off, you will know what I am thinking. I cringe when leaders don’t answer the question first, instead ramble in response to an executive’s question. It pains me inside. I get really excited where my brain takes off on ideas or discussions. Sometimes this leads to me interrupting others. I am working on this. You can help by acknowledging my excitement and input and noting the last few points you want to ensure are heard. This is a clear and respectful signal to me to pause and make note. I enjoy people. Which requires me to recharge in silence. My husband thinks I am actually an introvert. I am unapologetically ambitious. I value building the foundational skillsets and experiences vs. getting to the next role/title “fast”. And I like to succeed together as a team vs by myself. I take immediate action once an idea or project pops in my head. I trust easily at first. Once trust is lost it will take a lot to earn back, but it can be earned back.

I don’t like surprises. Don’t surprise Angie. I am brutally honest; people know where they stand with me. If they are unsure, ask and I will be very direct. I ask a lot of questions because I am curious. I seek to understand and actively try to disconfirm my beliefs often. I get hangry. I have a nutritionist to help mitigate this but if I don’t eat for a long time, I am not at my best. I am a planner and think of all the little details. Therefore, details matter to me. I reply to slack messages or text in my head and think I have actually replied. I appreciate top of inbox or pings if I haven’t replied in a timely manner. I am situational competitive person.
