For Angelique what she does as a living, she considers as a hobby already.
“I love it so much and it’s mostly all I have time for besides my time I spend with my husband and our families,” said Angelique.
“Through the industry I am in, I already work with so many beautiful young ladies, and I hope that I inspire them to be the best that they could be, that they grab every opportunity life has given them and run with it. You can only achieve it if you believe in yourself and do something with what you have been given, and push all of the negativity out of your life and mind,” continued Angelique.
