Angela Williams is a professional storyteller who loves to recall stories passed on from her grandmother and her own experiences. Angela J. Williams became interested in storytelling early on in life, hearing stories within her family that elevated her curiosity. At just 19 years old, Ms. Williams apprenticed with master storyteller, Dr. Gladys Caines-Coggswell, working diligently to learn and master the complexities of traditional storytelling. Angela believes stories serve and improve many functions in our day-to-day lives. She believes stories are the key to raising the ability of people to think more positively about themselves and others.
