About this speaker
Angela is breaking through barriers, entering a new space of one that is mental health & wellness with Fightstory Inc. Angela has been a professional MMA fighter since 2015 and is a 6x MMA world champion in One Championship.
While the world has only seen her in this light, she has been dedicated to the creation and development of this organization since losing her younger sister, Victoria to suicide in December 2022. Angela has been endlessly working in both her professional, and interpersonal life to ensure that narratives of mental health and illness are not left in the dark. She wishes to use her platform on social media and the world of MMA to leave a positive impact on the world.
For this reason, she has founded the mental health non-profit organization, Fightstory in honor of her younger sister, Victoria lee.
Angela believes in the power of sharing personal stories and connecting through our lived experiences. She has since opened up and shared her own experiences with overcoming battles with mental health and illness. Angela understands the urgent need to talk more about mental health and is determined to help those battling in silence.
