After finishing as a semi-finalist in the Miss Chinese Montreal Pageant in 1995, she represented

Angela has been in numerous TVB dramas since 1995, but mostly supporting roles and is mostly cast as a
showgirl or "the other woman ". After waiting for 10 years, her big break finally came with the TVB series "Life Made Simple (阿旺新傳)" playing the physically unattractive girl with a heart of gold and a wonderful singing voice called "Lee Siu Ho (李笑好)".The role won her critical acclaim and instant fame. Many television critics consider her scene-stealing performance to be one of the best TVB acting performances of 2005. In fact, that performance won Angela the Best Supporting Actress award at the TVB 37th Anniversary Awards (the equivalent of the
Emmy Awards in America) in November 2005.Her portrayal of Lee Siu Ho was so popular that TVB composed a primetime special called "Ho Is Beside You (好在你左右)" as well as the 12-episode variety program "Always Smiling (笑口常開)", both with Angela hosting in character as Lee Siu Ho.
Currently, Angela is still affiliated with TVB.
As of July/August 2008, the rumor is that she and
Chin Kar Lok are dating.elected Filmography
