Professional Life: Angela Dougan has been a Colorado resident since 1986.  During this time, she has raised a family, graduated from UCCS, and her latest career change is becoming manager in commercial property projects. In 2010, after the citizens of Colorado Springs voted for a strong- mayor charter, Angela ran and was elected as the D2 City Councilwomen.  As a town representative, she served on many committees including the City Finance, Pikes Peak Rural Transportation Authority, COS Utility Board, Oil and Gas Commission and participated in many other public policy working groups. Her greatest accomplishment was being a voice for D2 residents and a liaison to their local government. 

Community Involvement: Since her elected term, Angela has worked with non-profits such as working with the Teen Court Board of Directors in which she provided programs to help students build stronger messaging skills. Angela has worked with multiple homeschool organizations/families, Heritage Girls, Young Americans Club, and many other education groups to help educate future generations on government processes. Angela has also served as an adjunct trainer to help break down barriers for all to find their highest potential. Serving and advocating for her community is Angela’s greatest passion.

Family and Personal Life: Previous to her elected experience, Angela was blessed to be a “stay at home mom” and able to raise her two girls.  During this time, she was a substitute teacher in D11 and D20 school districts to stay connected to educational opportunities.  Angela also volunteered for both D20 and D38 school districts in many compacities and even received a Volunteer of the Year for D20, as well as served in many PTO/Parent Booster Board positions.  This allowed her to hone her skills at working with volunteers, interact with school leadership, and build strong local relationships.  Her greatest successes come when she can collaborate with families and businesses to ensure schools work to reach their highest potential and students can thrive.
