AANC Board Spotlight | Angela Raupp
Angela Raupp (she/her) is a dedicated multifamily professional, with a story rooted in resilience, hard work, and advocacy. Born and raised in Karthaus, Pennsylvania, Angela spent her high school summers working in a powdered metals factory, where her mother oversaw quality control. Her responsibilities included drilling, tapping, molding, and baking metal components in a sweltering warehouse. The challenging environment inspired Angela to pursue a college education and explore a long-term professional path.
In October of 2000, Angela moved to Fayetteville, North Carolina. Once settled, she realized how much she enjoyed being away from the snow, so she made North Carolina her permanent home. In 2012, Angela married her husband Andrew, who was active in the military. Today, her and her family live in a house they built years later, in Hope Mills, NC.
After moving to North Carolina, Angela completed her associate degree in Business Administration from Fayetteville Technical Community College. She then applied for a Leasing Professional position, drawing on her experience renting rooms and promoting amenities as hotel front desk clerk in Kansas. Angela has been active in the multifamily industry ever since, holding a variety of roles ranging from Leasing Consultant to Manager, Regional Manager, and Director of Operations.
Now, with over 24 years in the industry, Angela is currently the Remote Training and Support Specialist for Apartment Dynamics, where she has been for the last two and a half years. She shares “I’m fortunate to be in a position where I can share both industry and company knowledge with team members - and I truly love helping others grow and succeed in multifamily.”
Angela’s experience and dedication to the multifamily industry has led to a variety of leadership positions and recognition. She served as Vice President of the Cumberland County Apartment Association (CCAA, now the Greater Fayetteville Apartment Association, GFAA) in 2012-2013 and President of CCAA in 2014-2015. Angela currently represents GFAA on the AANC Board of Directors. Her recognitions include:
- 2014 AANC Leadership Lyceum Graduate
- 2018 National Apartment Association Community Manager of the Year
- 2018 Fayetteville, NC 40 Under 40 Recipient
- 2018 GFAA Community Manager of the Year.

Outside of her busy life in the multifamily industry, Angela’s personal life is equally as active. Her days often begin with an early morning run, keeping herself in shape for her next half-marathon (she’s already completed five!). She is a committed and proud mother of three: Myles (24), and 8-year old twins Madison and Mitchell. She reflects that “Twins are the BEST buy-one, get-one free!” When the weather turns warm, you can often find her and the kids enjoying their backyard pool or eagerly awaiting their next trip to Disneyworld.
Angela’s commitment to helping others extends far beyond her work. When she was pregnant with the twins, she learned that one of them (Madison) had markers for Trisomy 21 (Down Syndrome) and a heart defect. It was a time of fear, uncertainty, and overwhelming questions. Madison spent the first 75 days of her life at the Duke NICU, underwent multiple surgeries, and faced more medical challenges than many adults see in a lifetime. Angela shares that today, Madison is “absolutely thriving and truly rocking her extra chromosome—with a whole lot of sass and personality to match.” Her experience has made her a fierce advocate for Madison and others in the Down syndrome community. She asks that “If you’re a parent facing a prenatal diagnosis, have questions, or just need someone to talk to—I’m here. Please don’t hesitate to reach out.”
Angela has built a life defined by service and compassion. From the factory floor to the boardroom, and from the fear of the unknown to championing others in the Down syndrome community, she’s an inspiration to us all.
