About Angela Townsend

Hi, I’m Angela — a creative strategist, community builder, and social media storyteller with 6+ years of experience growing beauty and lifestyle brands across Instagram, TikTok, and emerging platforms. I’ve helped indie brands glow up (hello Ulta Beauty launch ), built ambassador programs from scratch, and turned trend spotting into real engagement.At the heart of my work is a deep commitment to building inclusive, engaging spaces — particularly for Black and Brown women. I specialize in crafting content and community strategies that see people, reflect culture, and connect on a real level. From developing UGC-driven campaigns to collaborating with creators who reflect the audience, I’m all about authentic, equity-driven marketing that builds trust. Beauty is my lane Strategy is my blueprint🧠 Community is my heartCurrently based in Los Angeles and always down to connect with fellow creatives, marketers, and brands looking to make meaningful (and fun) things online. Let’s build something magnetic.
