Angela M. Sánchez
Angela (she/they) is a Mexican American writer whose action-adventure stories are soaked in magic, centering on themes of found family and beating the odds. Inspiration comes from Angela’s own daunting odds of surviving chronic homelessness as a teen. Angela now serves on the board for School on Wheels, an LA-based nonprofit that supports K-12 students experiencing homelessness. In 2018, the Los Angeles Times featured their children’s book, Scruffy and the Egg, which tackles topics of single-parenthood and homelessness.
Angela was recently a staff writer for Disney Television Animation’s latest 6-11 series PRIMOS. They've also written for PAW PATROL, RUBBLE & CREW, AppleTV+’s acclaimed series STILLWATER, Nick Jr.’s latest DORA & FRIENDS, and 20+ episodes for Moonbug’s GECKO’S GARAGE.
