Bio
Chantal Cox
Mischelle has a powerful story and is passionate about helping others tell their stories as well. Through story-telling, she is making a positive ripple effect that will reach far and wide. She shows up authentically and was an amazing guest to have on my podcast. I highly recommend booking her for your next speaking engagement, podcast, summit, or conference.

Bold vision and tenacious aptitude are descriptions that come to mind when I think about Mischelle. I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Mischelle for over two years, during which we were Project Managers assigned to the Enterprise Project Management Office at Focus on the Family. Above all, I was impressed with Mischelle’s ability to quickly understand organizational processes and work within them to effect positive change. And, of course, her steadfast demeanor, persistence on continuous improvement, and willingness to mentor and develop her fellow project managers. Mischelle would be a true asset for any Director or Senior Management/Program & Project Management position requiring thoughtful leadership and technical project management skills. She has my full recommendation!
