Formally known as Angelica, but typically referred to as Angel.

I’m a New York based Software Engineer currently at Instagram within Meta. My passions lie in the intersection of software development and design. I love bringing beauty and clarity to complex projects by leveraging advanced algorithms, critical thinking skills, and an elegant design sensibility. My design background enables me to bridge communication between both design and engineering teams, resulting in high quality client facing product experiences.

I am also an interior designer and design consultant. Previous design projects/involvement include Instagram HQ, Facebook Campus in Menlo Park, Zendesk, Gusto, and Uber, some of which have been recognized in Architectural Digest, Refinery29, Wired, and Fortune. Before leaving San Francisco, I drove the design direction for HiLight Staging, a boutique residential real estate staging company serving the Bay Area.

On my downtime, I enjoy staying active through sports like boxing and snowboarding. I also love traveling to either warm, tropical destinations or cities with rich architectural history.
