Upload image to Kinvey with Angular

Im trying to add photo uploading to individual accounts that are already set up in a collection in Kinvey. I've been messing around with it most of the day and can't figure it out. Anyone have any suggestions on how I should set this up? thanks!

Edit:

So i looked into how to do it more and Kinvey says to structure it like so: var fileContent = 'file-content-string'; var promise = $kinvey.File.upload(fileContent, { _id : 'my-file-id', _filename : 'my-file.txt', mimeType : 'text/plain', size : fileContent.length });

however I am unclear how to implement that into my angular code. I am using ng-file-upload so my angular code should look something like this: 

               var MyCtrl = [ '$scope', '$upload', function($scope, $upload) {
  $scope.onFileSelect = function($files) {
    //$files: an array of files selected, each file has name, size, and type.
    for (var i = 0; i < $files.length; i++) {
      var file = $files[i];
      $scope.upload = $upload.upload({
        url: 'server/upload/url', //upload.php script, node.js route, or servlet url
        data: {myObj: $scope.myModelObj},
        file: file,
      }).progress(function(evt) {
        console.log('percent: ' + parseInt(100.0 * evt.loaded / evt.total));
      }).success(function(data, status, headers, config) {
        // file is uploaded successfully
        console.log(data);
      });
    }
  };
}];

How how can I combine these to make it work? thanks.

var promise = $kinvey.File.upload(files[0].file,{
                _filename: files[0].file.name,
                public: true,
                size: files[0].file.size,
                mimeType: files[0].file.type
            }).then(function (_result) {
                console.log("$upload: " + JSON.stringify(_result));
                //file.cancel()
            }, function error(err) {
                console.log('[$upload] received error: ' + JSON.stringify(err));
            });

            return promise;

        });
