My name is Angel La’Reine, a Haitian-American woman proudly rooted in my culture, my people, and my purpose. I was born in Brooklyn to Haitian parents who raised me with a deep sense of pride, resilience, and spiritual strength that has shaped the woman I am today.
Being on the cover of Haiti Open Magazine would be more than an honor; it would be a platform to amplify a message that’s deeply personal to me: Haiti deserves to rise. I believe in our people, our brilliance, and the beauty that’s woven into our DNA. My long-term goal is to be part of rebuilding Haiti—not just physically, but economically, culturally, and spiritually. I envision creating opportunities, investing in local talent, and helping bring visibility to the richness that already exists within our borders.
This cover would be a reminder that the diaspora isn’t distant…we’re connected, committed, and ready to show up for our home. Angel
