Dr. Chanel—also known as Dr. Coco—is a culinary creator and food & wine educator based in Houston, Texas. A transformational district leadership coach by day, by night you’ll find her in the lab (aka her kitchen), creating soulful meals inspired by her Creole roots and childhood memories of cooking alongside elders.

With a background as a former caterer and WSET Level 2 wine educator, Dr. Coco brings joy, flavor, and intention to every dish and pour. Whether she’s cooking from scratch or plating up takeout like a pro, her mission is simple: to help women curate culinary experiences that bring people together.
