Business Consultant/Coach: Entrenuity
Angela Jackson has two loves: business and community. Both are intricately tied to one another, so she helps develop businesses that are good and do good for the community. Having received a Bachelor's in Interior Design followed by an MBA, she found her way into the small business world and found the many challenges that entrepreneurs and owners face. After working with several businesses in the South to develop expertise in marketing and business development, she came to Chicago and became a small business growth consultant. You can find her living out her passions around the city: women business groups, anti-trafficking outreaches, swing dancing, biking, and cooking brunch with friends at her home in Lakeview.
Angela teaches the StartingUp Now curriculum and provides one-on-one business consulting and coaching. She loves to break down large business concepts into bit-size pieces. She is also co-founder of her own start-up,TalentFlood, so she understands the struggles of entrepreneurship and wants to educate her students on best practices and encourage them to never quit!
