As the Community Engagement & Events Specialist at Carolina Family Estate Planning, Angel Preston leads with heart in everything she does. Whether she’s presenting a workshop, coordinating a community event, or planning internal gatherings for the team, her mission is simple: to educate, connect, and create meaningful experiences that leave people feeling welcomed, supported, and empowered. Events are Angel’s love language—she finds joy in the details, thrives on bringing people together, and has a gift for turning everyday gatherings into memorable moments. She also oversees much of the firm’s community communication, helping clients stay informed and connected.
With over a decade in the financial industry—specializing in small business and banking—Angel has always been passionate about helping people make confident, informed decisions. During her time as a bank manager, she witnessed families face financial hardship, long probate processes, and avoidable stress when plans weren’t in place. That perspective deepened her appreciation for the work CFEP does and fuels her commitment to helping families protect what matters most.
She believes professional success starts with treating others the way you’d want to be treated. Angel approaches every interaction with kindness, respect, and genuine care, and starts each day with a positive attitude and a promise to follow through.
Born and raised in North Carolina, Angel lives with her husband Mark, their Goldendoodle Hank, and their young son Grayson, who brings endless energy to family game nights filled with Candy Land and Uno—games that spark warm memories from her own childhood. She’s also a proud stepmom to Ava and Kaylee. In her free time, Angel loves heading to the beach, hunting for vintage treasures, reading, crafting, and soaking up time with her favorite people. She’s a fan of heartfelt TV dramas, dreams of tropical getaways, and often wishes she could be everywhere she’s needed all at once.
Compassionate, creative, and driven, Angel shows up each day with a genuine desire to serve others—and her impact reaches far beyond the events she plans.
