Angelique LeDoux is managing editor of content at The UHNW Institute and offers the voice and perspective of a second generation family member, sharing lessons learned from her journey that reflects the complexities of an evolving multigenerational family. She is also a principal and Chief Storytelling Strategist for Seattle-based StoryQ, that helps youth and adults connect the dots of their life through storytelling, captured on film, to better understand and give authority to author their own lives.
Prior to her current roles, LeDoux was the founding partner and executive director of Parents of Accelerated Learners, NYC (PALNYC), a non-profit that supports talent development through the academic, social and emotional development of NYC’s youth. In addition to her non-profit work, LeDoux was the founder of Jade’s ToyBox, an educational and eco-friendly children’s toy company, after a decade as a writer, editor and photographer at TIME Magazine and the Associated Press.
Previously a Managing Director with Golden Seeds, a nationwide angel investor network that invests in companies founded by women or who have significant equity ownership, and later with socially responsible Investors Circle, LeDoux became focused on early stage investing and initiatives that support the change she hopes to see in the world.
She has held board positions in a variety of areas of passion including children’s healthcare through Menlo Park-based PANDAS Network; education via NYC-based The Speyer Legacy School and edutainment with Boston-based, technology company Playrific. Most recently, LeDoux is focused on legacy and storytelling through the Seattle-based venture StoryQ and the non-profit Prodigy Camp to help scale its mission because like her, everyone’s got a story to tell.
LeDoux received an MA in both Journalism and Fine Art Photography from New York University and went on to pursue a Graduate Certificate in Gifted Education from Rutgers University to better support her own advanced learner who just headed off to college in the Pacific Northwest. When not traveling, LeDoux resides in New York City and spends every chance she can either in Austin, Texas, or on a bicycle heading downhill.
