She joined and won Marvel’s international talent contest ChesterQuest in 2008 and went on to work on titles such as NYX, X-Men, Namora, and Runaways before being selected as the main artist for the second volume of Ultimate Comics: Spider-Man.
She quickly became one of Marvel’s most celebrated young artists, winning an Eagle Award and a Harvey Award in 2011, followed by two Stan Lee Awards in 2012. In 2014 she was named one of Marvel’s Young Guns, a recognition given to the most promising early-career artists. Her work in the following years included Guardians of the Galaxy (featuring Angela’s first Marvel Universe appearance, written by Neil Gaiman), All-New X-Men, Spider-Men, and the relaunch of Fantastic Four written by Dan Slott. In 2020 she illustrated a Spider-Man mini-series written by J.J. Abrams and Henry Abrams, and in 2022–2023 she helped launch the new Scarlet Witch solo series written by Steve Orlando.
