Angela L. Wimberly

I was born and raised in Huntsville. I had an interest in mathematics and computers, so growing up around Redstone Arsenal, I saw the opportunities with technology in space and Army missile programs. I attended the University of Alabama in Huntsville and graduated in 1987 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science and Mathematics. I worked as a Software Analyst for SCI, Intergraph and Dynetics. Over the years, I would help tutor my neighbors children, they helped me realize that I wanted to make an impact in my world and I was more likely to do this as a teacher instead of a programmer. So in 1999, I received my Secondary Education Certificate in Mathematics from Athens State University and started my first teaching job with Huntsville City Schools at Challenger Middle School.
