The Corporate Storyteller


Stories are the creative conversion of life itself into a more powerful, clearer, more meaningful experience.  They are the currency of human contact.                                                                  
                                                                                                                       - Robert McKee


Angela M, The Corporate Storyteller

Angela's Story

From an early age I had a constant hunger to tell the true story.
For many years I imagined myself in a courtroom fighting for justice
and giving a powerful voice to those who couldn't defend themselves.

Then, thanks to my Grandmother, Elizabeth 'Pearl' Flagg, I found my song.  
And once that happened it was clear to me and all those around me, 
I could best tell stories through melody.

There's a memorable and unique beauty that eminates from a Story
presented through music.  And I told as many stories as I could; giving up
traditional summer vacation trips and sun drenched spring breaks in
order to share my Song Stories with whomever would listen.  Most of
the time I didn't earn a nickel and didn't care.  Then my Grandfather
suggested I put my storytelling talents to use earning a real living.
"Of course!" I thought.  That's when I embarked on my twenty plus year career in Corporate Storytelling.

Today I remain ever-curious and hungry to learn and write the next good Story.  The bulk of my time is spent writing Corporate Stories.  People do business with people.  Corporations are made up of people who believe in them. Pioneers who began their company with a big, palatable dream, can find themselves too modest to share their own story.  Every great company has a good story to tell.  If they choose me to help them redefine and rejuvenate their Corporate Story, I'm grateful and eager to chart their way.

I'm blessed to have a big life full of colorful characters.  My mentor of many years, who's the ultimate Irish Storyteller, continues to inspire and challenge me to be better.  Usually perched nearest my writing desk are two gorgeous rag dolls.  Their names are "Bella" and "Capri."  They're wonderful critics because they unconditionally love every one of my stories, 
even the 'bombs.' 

Most importantly, I am the mother to one lovely, precocious daughter 
who I'm proud to say is crafting a magnificent life story for herself.
