Angelina graduated from Central Catholic High School Class of 1984 in Norwalk, CT, later graduating from Katharine Gibbs College in 1986. After college, she became a Scheduling Coordinator at Family and Children’s Agency in Norwalk for 13 years. After the birth of her triplet sons, she took a break from work to raise them. Angelina later went back to work a few years later as a Teller at Bank of America for the next 7 years. She was loved and adored by many of her clients and the greater Norwalk area. Over the years, she worked several other jobs in the banking and social work fields, ending her career as a Patient Care Representative at OrthoConnecticut Coastal Orthopedics.
