About Me

Who is Chauntel? I'm a blessed, focused, and driven sista from the south side of Chicago trying to make it happen. Constantly on my grind, I spend my days negotiating multi-million dollar deals in Corporate America and my nights as an aspiring Editor, Writer and Publisher of S.INC Magazine. Oh yeah, did I mention that I'm a mother, a poet, a public speaker, a student and community activist.I believe that all black women are superheroes. There is not another species on earth that can juggle what we juggle, while looking as good as we do.I'm a go getter that believes nothing is out of my reach. If I want it, then its mine. A lot of people find that kind of cockiness intimidating, but I can't change me. I was built like this. I'm a child of the king!On a personal level, I love my family and friends. I am a functioning shoe addict. To quote Pookie in New Jack City, "They be calling me man!" At last count, I had over 200 pair. I hope you enjoy entering my space and appreciate you not just looking at the pictures. Make sure you read the blogs...a sista be having some things on her mind.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet a diverse set of professionals with true vision and the drive to back it up. To many of us rely on HOPE to get what we want. I live by the creed that "HOPE IS NOT A PLAN."  For 2008 lets quit hoping and start planning! The future will be a lot brighter.

Drama amongst the panty brigade

You know that it never fails...when I'm pregnant, I start to lose friends like crazy. I know a big part of it is that I become a hermit.  Rarely leaving the house, can't do the clubs and I spend ...

Sleeping dogs LIE and Tigers never change their stripes...

How men get caught?  That's a pretty simple question.  Men get caught because they change their routine.  Women make it their duty to study their man.  They study his coming and go...
