Angel Rich

Founder and CEO, WealthyLife

Washington, D.C.

Even before being named the "Next Steve Jobs" by Forbes Magazine, Angel already earned the title of "Wealth Pioneer." Rich founded The Wealth Factory with a mission to provide equal access to financial literacy across the world. Through her company, WealthyLife provides financial literacy education through technology games, walking people from birth to retirement in 12 subjects. The first game released, CreditStacker (a match-three game like Candy Crush), has been named the best financial literacy product in the country by the White House, Department of Education, and JP Morgan Chase. In August 2017, the company launched the full product version of CreditStacker, exceeding 200,000 downloads in 60 countries and 21 languages in two weeks. Google Top 50 Apps Deparment selected it as one of the ten most promising apps in the world.

Angel is also the author of The History of the Black Dollar, has been honored as Hamptonian of the Year, helped to found the Hampton University Entrepreneurship and Innovation Institute, and is a proud member of the 2016 HBCU 30 Under 30, Hampton 40 Under 40 and Google Top 30 Black Female Founders.
