Educator, researcher, and entrepreneur
Dr. Beth combines academic expertise with real-world wisdom, holding a doctorate in Teaching and Learning and a master’s in Interpersonal Communication. This blend allows her to design learning experiences that meet people where they are and move them forward.
Since the 1990s, she has guided thousands of executives, physicians, athletes, college students, and teams through her person-centered, research-based methodology. She is trusted by UN Women, Van Cleef & Arpels, and the New York Medical Society, among others.
Her work is built on the DeAngelis Learning Method, a five-stage framework that takes people from knowledge through reflection and skill-building to action and connection. Every engagement begins with data, using validated assessment and organizational insight to tailor the work to the people in the room, so that learning turns into lasting change.
Drawing from decades of experience, Dr. Beth is writing her first book, Love Scaled is set to be released later this year.
Five years ago, Dr. Beth designed a skills-based college course, Developing Your Emotional Intelligence, which demonstrated increased student well-being and continues to be taught each fall at Siena College. This course, based on the 15 competencies of the MHS EQi 2.0, inspired her to expand her work beyond the classroom when people frequently expressed interest in taking her course. Her method is person-centered, research-based, and practical, emphasizing that growth starts with self-awareness, refining knowledge to unlock potential, and living a values-centered life. Since the 1990s, Dr. Beth has supported thousands of leaders, executives, and teams on their journey to meaningful development. A full-time educator since 2012, her commitment to integrating Emotional Intelligence into professional success has now culminated in an upcoming book, poised to inspire an even wider audience.
Dr. Beth’s life’s mission is to help people reach their potential. A committed advocate for mental health and girls’ education, she volunteers with the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention and supports educational initiatives in Central America and sub-Saharan Africa. She delivers keynotes nationwide on mental health as a safety imperative for the construction industry.
An exercise enthusiast and yogini, she moves a lot, for wellness and for fun. Her extensive travels have deepened her appreciation of diverse cultures and grown her circle of friends across the globe. A lover of nature, she finds her greatest joy in exploring the natural world, where she rediscovers the true meaning of wonder and awe.
Above all, her favorite role is mom to two adult daughters, an experience that continues to teach her life’s greatest lesson: the power of unconditional love.
