About Angela
Angela is the friendly voice (and often the face) behind many of your Orlando boat rental experiences. Originally from upstate New York, she’s called Central Florida home since childhood and has deep roots in our local waterways.
If you call, text, or email Boats To You Rentals to book your pontoon or deck boat adventure, Angela is likely the one you’ll speak with. She’s incredibly knowledgeable about all things boating—from recommending the perfect boat size and layout for your group to suggesting the ideal lake or chain based on your plans (whether it’s a relaxed family cruise, tubing session, or fishing outing). She might even be the one personally delivering and setting up your boat right at your dock!
Angela earned her business degree from Valencia College right here in Orlando, giving her a strong foundation in business operations. She’s well-versed in bookkeeping and accounting, asset management (including buying and selling boats to keep our fleet fresh and reliable), and brings exceptional organizational skills to everything she does. As our logistics master, Angela excels at scheduling deliveries, coordinating renter activities, and handling the behind-the-scenes planning so your day on the water goes smoothly and stress-free.
