Thank you, Angelina Lee, from Handshake, for joining me on the Born To Talk Radio Show Podcast. She is their Mid Market Customer Success Manager.

Angelina.

Angelina and I met many years ago when she was working at the Westchester Family YMCA. When she left the YMCA, she became the Assistant Director of Career Services at Otis College of Art and Design. Then she joined Loyola Marymount University as the Director of Employer Engagement, of Career and Professional Development. She currently works for Handshake, a perfect transition in her career.

In her free time, Angelina enjoys spending time with family and friends, singing, dancing, playing piano, guitar, and practicing martial arts. She has a black belt in Taekwondo and has trained in classical Chinese Tai Chi sword and fan dance.
