Chantal Rochelle is a creative producer, marketing strategist, and all-around digital storyteller who loves bringing big ideas to life. In 2025, she’s stepping into a new role as an author with the release of her first children’s book, Where Did Grandma Go?, a heartfelt story about grief, love, and remembering the ones we’ve lost. 📖💛 She’s been named a Shorty Award Finalist, Webby Award Nominee, and a Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree, and her work has been featured in Entertainment Weekly, MTV, Essence, Vibe, and Complex—but at the end of the day, she’s just someone who loves telling stories, amplifying voices, and making sure people feel seen. Whether it’s through marketing, writing, or just sending a perfectly timed meme, Chantal’s goal is simple: bring people together, spark joy, and keep pushing the culture forward.
