Angela 

Angela Rockwood, , Co-Director of Operation Confidence Positive Redirection Team, is an outstanding model who hosted several fashion shows for the organization that featured accessible  fashionable clothing. She also  didn't even cross her mind,” the 37-year-old, who identifies as quadriplegic. But what did occur was that she had been transported to the realm of the paralyzed for a reason. she realized she had a huge choice to go down the positive path, be an example for others in similar positions and be their voice.

Since then, at 37-year-old she has become active in numerous organizations for the disabled, including Fight 2 Walk Foundation, Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation and Operation Confidence,
