The Advocates

ABOUT ME

Better known as “Angie,” she is the proud wife of Charles Cauthorn who she shares a beautiful home in Moorestown, NJ along with their cat Tigger.

At one time she was an accomplished sales leader who earned her tenure as general sales manager of the former tech giant Radio Shack.

She was also a mortgage banker who’d parlayed all of her knowledge into becoming Finance Manager for one of the largest car dealers in the country.

While managing her career she also found time to serve as Vice president of the board of directors for Eleone Dance Theater over 20 years. A youth leader at her church and championship winning basketball coach. Besides being a wife, this was the thing nearest and dearest to her heart.

Angie has always had a reputation for being a “get it done”, “make it happen”, go getter who has a “play hard-work harder” attitude but that all came to a devastating halt in 2017 when Angie suffered and survived 2 strokes while simply standing in her kitchen pouring a glass of water.

Angie never imagined the day that most of her collected knowledge from so many years of life experience would one day become trapped in an abyss inside her brain…otherwise known as Aphasia.

This life altering experience sent her on a search for more information about her condition and she quickly realized that she was on boat in the middle of the ocean with no lighthouse to follow. As co-founder of the ARCH Network (APHASIA RESOURCE COLLABORATION HUB) she considers it to be the lighthouse for People with aphasia. The mission is to increase awareness and access to treatment research and other support services for people with aphasia. To just make it easier to find the many aphasia choirs, camps, cruises and support groups resources that are available to them in their region. Lead as many stakeholders possible to a place where they can be educated, effective, informed, and guided in all things's aphasia with hopes that major milestones can be made to improve the effects of the less often explored impairment.

“I did the only thing I could do, I watched YouTube. I watched every Khan Academy video about stroke. Hospital of England and stroke association of America and then I came upon Jill. When I saw Dr Jill” (Bolte Taylor) the neurosciences that had a stroke and she described as she can talk and I saw she was talking. I realized, it was possible.”
