Meet our Founder of NIAS (pronounced NICE)

Angela Booker, BSN, RN

Angela (Williamson) Booker is the third of five children. She was born to Marie Williamson and the late Ellis Williamson in Springfield, Illinois. Her mother moved the family to Gary, Indiana, and later transitioned to Cincinnati, Ohio, where Angela spent most of her childhood and teenage years. After graduating from Mt. Healthy High School, Angela pursued her interest in the medical field, starting with her Certified Nurse’s Assistant (STNA) certification. In pursuit of an improved quality of life for herself and her son Brandon, Angela worked tirelessly with the support of her family.
Living in Atlanta was an eye-opening experience for Angela. The collaboration of diversity, professionalism, exceptional patient care, passion, and skills in the Atlanta hospitals inspired her. In addition to her passion for nursing, she also has a passion for being creative and fashionable. Collectively, her passions spawned the idea of creating a clothing line called “NURSES IN ALL SHADES”. Though she pondered the idea for some years, it resurfaced after a patient assault threatened her career.
Today, NURSES IN ALL SHADES is not only a brand that represents diversity, high quality, and fashion, but also a brand that represents the skills, passion, and perseverance of nurses. Furthermore, NURSES IN ALL SHADES is a banner for nurses and unsung heroes worldwide.

Our Mission

Our mission is to highlight the skill, passion and fashion of diverse nurses around the world. NIAS is also a movement to bring awareness toward patient assault to medical professionals.
