Angela's professional journey began in Tucson, AZ as the lead staff over three group homes for adults with disabilities. She then became the lead teacher for a self-contained autism program where she made significant strides in special education. During this time, she was honored with the Excellence in Education award for "extraordinary contributions to students with disabilities."

Jenny Jang
Administrative & Program Assistant
My name is Jenny and I am a sophomore at Emory University studying Biology. I am also working towards going to medical school to become a doctor. Some of the things I love are coffee and a good brunch so my goal while working at MTFA is to tour all of the cafes in Decatur! I am so excited to join the MTFA family and I hope my work will be lots of help to the community’s mission.
