What Clients Are Saying
“Chanelle has an extraordinary talent for creating safe and engaging learning environments for her clients. She is skilled at imparting highly applicable knowledge and insights on anti-racism coping mechanisms, nurturing meaningful allyships and creating inclusive spaces that encourage the full participation of individuals from equity-seeking groups. The knowledge she holds and constantly grows, coupled with her patience and intuitive ability to understand the needs and positionality of her clients, make her one of the best educators and collaborators to learn from and work with.”
— Halimah B., EDI Consultant
“Chanelle is an expert facilitator and educator. She shows respect for the audience, meeting them where they are at and providing the right amount of lived experience, academic research and accessible language to engage the audience and get them learning. Chanelle adapted her facilitation style seamlessly despite technical issues on our end, delivering a learning program that exceeded expectations. Participants were engaged in the process and offering opinions and questions throughout. I look forward to working with Chanelle again and am committed to recommending her as often as I can.”
— Carolyn A., Federal Black Employee Caucus, Government of Canada
“Through her facilitation of VAFF's Elimin8hate Anti-Asian Racism workshop, Chanelle demonstrates a deep understanding that real ‘inclusion’ requires deliberate, intentional and continual actions. Chanelle is highly skilled at creating a safe space for attendees to have meaningful cultural exchanges to share their lived experiences, which can ultimately foster more partnership, collaboration and engagement. To fully participate in society, Canadians from racialized and marginalized communities need to be actively seen and heard and Chanelle is adept at amplifying these underrepresented voices.”
— Barbara L., Founder and President, Vancouver Asian Film Festival

“So far the most relaxing and welcoming workshop I’ve attended. I was at ease and learned a lot. Powerful combo.”
“Vulnerable. Knowledgeable. Engaging. Nuanced. Hilarious.”
“If you could lead every anti-racism session/workshop that would be great. The tools and tips were practical and it felt like a safe space to share. I also appreciate the humour you bring – let’s be friends so I can make you a friendship bracelet.”
