Good Culture is a practice
Good Culture is the intentional work of shaping environments where people can show up with their strengths and contribute with confidence and shared purpose. Good culture practices show up in the daily choices we make and the behaviours we model. It is the living environment that shapes how people feel, how they belong, and how they grow together.
For more than 20 years, I have partnered with leaders, teams, and boards to cultivate workplaces where inclusion, equity, and belonging are foundational. I have learned that culture change begins with a willingness to learn and unlearn, listen deeply, and act with care, consistency, and responsibility. I help organizations move beyond aspiration into real, relational, everyday practices that shape environments where all people can contribute their best. Whether you are navigating change, or deepening an existing practice, I am here to walk alongside you as a guide, partner, and co-learner.
Beyond the work, I draw strength and inspiration from my Trinidadian heritage, which grounds me and fuels my passion for equity and inclusion. When I am not working with clients, you are likely to find me at the dojo training toward my third-degree black belt, a practice that reminds me daily that growth takes practice, reflection, and consistency.

TRUSTED BY
"Chanel shares information in a way that encourages empathy and understanding, and inspires action."
Chanel is an exceptional thinker, trainer and facilitator. My organization partnered with Chanel on the design and delivery of intersectional gender analysis for program design. Participants were very diverse including staff from different global regions, and with varying levels of prior knowledge of the subject. Chanel was very responsive to the challenges of facilitating learning across diverse groups, actively listened, and made adjustments based on participant feedback. The sessions were insightful, carefully tailored to our needs, and included relevant examples. Chanel’s warmth and joyful presence lightens up the room, making the whole environment much more conducive for participation and learning. I strongly recommend working with Chanel on all your gender analysis needs!
