Originally from Mexico, Angelica's journey in the performing arts began with her exceptional talent as a jazz performer, winning multiple national competitions. Her passion for theater and dance led her to New York City, where she studied musical theater dance under the renowned Chet Walker. During this time, she participated in the legendary production "Viva El Paso!" for two years and went on to produce her first musicals, including the adaptation, production, direction, and choreography of Gershwin's "Crazy for You" at the young age of 23.

 

Angelica then moved to Mexico City, where she worked as Assistant Director and Producer for the Mexican production "Como Ama la Otra Mitad," alongside industry veterans Manolo Fabregas and Otto Sirgo. She also served as the choreographer for singer Paulina Rubio, including performances at Madison Square Garden and a national tour. At 26, Angelica relocated to Westchester, NY, where she created a successful musical theater program for the Recreation Department of the Village of Mamaroneck and various schools in the area. Additionally, she produced and directed a TV series for LMCT in Larchmont, NY, earning multiple Best Series Awards.

 

In Miami, FL, Angelica continued to leave her mark on the industry.
