"My time working with Cheyelene as Editor at Hong Kong Living was a truly enjoyable experience. Her passion and dedication to every task were contagious, bringing the whole team together. ​
Throughout her year at Hong Kong Living, she rose to the rank of Editor for Southside Magazine, where she pitched fresh ideas, delegated tasks, and produced an entire magazine each month, from pagination to print day. ​
Cheyelene’s calm and kind presence grew valuable networks for the company through interviews and media events. While her professionalism helped build up the reputation of both the magazine, contributors, and advertisers with whom she worked alongside each month.."

Merie Browne, Former CMO
at Brinc
(innovation and VC firm)

"Cheyelene joined us to handle content creation and immediately elevated our output. From crafting thoughtful blogs and articles to keeping our newsletter consistently engaging, her work was always thorough and on-brand. Beyond the writing itself, she demonstrated exceptional project management skills - keeping multiple content streams on track, juggling deadlines, and ensuring stakeholders were always informed.

A significant contribution of hers was launching On the Brinc, our video podcast interviewing startup founders. Cheyelene had a natural gift for putting guests at ease, drawing out authentic stories that resonated deeply with our audience. She turned a simple idea into a series that genuinely connected.

Cheyelene is trustworthy, highly organised, and a pleasure to work with. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to any team looking for a creative professional who delivers."
