Born in Zaporizhzhia, Ukraine, Angelina grew up between Ukraine and the US. She received her bachelor's at the University of California, Berkeley before going on to earn her MFA in Acting at The Ohio State University, where she found her voice as a new works creator and divisor, premiering several original works. 

 

For the past 3 years, Angelina has been heavily involved with the Shakespeare & Autism Project (created by Kelly Hunter), where she was the project coordinator and then the instructor of record in the Spring 2025 workshops through OSU. Her involvement in the project continues to grow and flourish as a lifelong pursuit as she continues the work with Flute Theatre, bringing the work to different communities.

 

She has also trained during the summers, notably in BADA’s Midsummer in Oxford and Greek Theatre program, which furthered her love of Shakespeare and Greek theatre. This has inspired her to create accessible Greek Theatre workshops for students who seek further training in heightened text. 

 

As a dialect coach, she most recently worked on the JEBBY award winning show Ride the Cyclone at the Contemporary Theatre in Columbus, OH and OSU’s production of Orlando, along with teaching Dialects at the university. 

 

She currently has a home base in California and Ohio, working as an actor, lecturer and dialect coach.
