Early years and studies

Angel Pérez Otero was born September 18, 1970 in Río Piedras. He is the oldest of five siblings. Pérez completed his elementary and high school studies in Guaynabo, graduating from Margarita Janer High School.

In 1992, Pérez completed a Bachelor's degree in Business Management, with a major in Accounting, from the Metropolitan University. He graduated Magna cum laude.
Public service
Pérez began working at the Office of Human Resources of Guaynabo in 1991. Two years later, he started working at the Office of the Comptroller of Puerto Rico, until 1995. That year, he returned to work at the Budget Office of Guaynabo.
Political career
Pérez began his political career as President of the PNP Youth, and then as Vicepresident of the party in Guaynabo.
In January 2004, Pérez was elected to the House of Representatives of Puerto Rico representing District 6, replacing the former Mayor of Cataño, Wilson Soto.
That same year, Pérez was officially elected at the general election. During that term, he presided the Commissions of Budget and Assignments, and was Co-president of the Commission of Legislative Donations, among others.
Pérez was reelected in 2008, and was chosen as Majority Whip for his party in the House of Representatives.
Pérez was involved in a scandal during the 2012 PNP primaries, when it was revealed that there were some irregularities in the voting process at his District. Some of the irregularities involved Mayor of Guaynabo, Héctor O'Neill, forcing members of the municipal police to vote for Pérez' rival, Antonio Soto. In the end, Pérez' rival prevailed, preventing him from running at the upcoming elections.
