Image description: Color photo of Angelique in front of a mottled gray tree trunk. They are a medium-toned East Asian person with a buzzed head of black hair, wearing glasses, smiling, looking off to the right. They’re wearing a black wire necklace with silver metal rings looped on it and a black tank dress. As a facilitator, consultant, editor, organizer, and creative, Angelique works to support and repair the connections people have to themselves and their families, communities, and cultural practices. She supports individuals and groups through practical, responsive coaching; trains community and health care workers and educators; and offers lectures, classes, and workshops on topics including the practice of carrying children in fabric close to their caregivers, consent, cultural awareness, community building, relationships, and parenting, in alignment with social, healing, and transformative justice frameworks. Her goal is to seed communities with as much critical thinking, compassion, accountability, and resilience as possible, while helping people get through their days more easily. Angelique values building intergenerationally, with colleagues across disciplines, to question and depolarize the beliefs and practices that can lead to isolation and feelings of powerlessness — to co-create or reclaim ways we can end cycles of violence (systemic, interpersonal, internalized) and promote resilience and healing from historical and social harms.
