Angie’s take on:
The ingredients to office harmony.
“The most basic thing that makes an office run is mutual respect—the desire to understand one another and the needs of the work. There are pragmatic elements, of course, but it’s about relationships too. It’s when everyone asks: ‘What is required of us to move the work forward?’”
For Angie, that translates into a proactive operations practice, thinking through the details before they become issues, so the agency’s creative and strategic work remains in focus.
How small details create the big picture.
Angie describes her job the way a train conductor might: The goal is for everything to run seamlessly, precisely because she’s poured time, effort and thought into every detail. She holds two perspectives at once and moves fluidly between them: the granular and the systemic. That dual vision allows Angie to see how the small things—each vendor relationship maintained, plane ticket booked, event planned, new team member onboarded—become the big, interconnected things that make DH a place people want to be.
Angie says:
“This office is dynamic—there's always a lot going on—which is what I like about operations and logistics in the first place. There’s always something new to do or to learn. At DH, there’s a constant desire for growth as individuals and as an agency. It feels very alive.”
The magic of movement.
When she’s not working, Angie’s world is built around community, music and movement. She’s danced her whole life, from musical theater and ballet growing up to pop-up salsa and bachata social dances more recently. She says, “Many parts of our lives and culture are pretty rigid. Dance is a space where people can show up, express themselves and feel at ease. That’s pretty magical.”
