Chanelle Coleman

Chanelle Coleman Wesley is a native of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. She is the creative powerhouse behind CeCi's Ink, an innovative storytelling company that conveys powerful narratives through poetry, books, playwrights, fashion, blogs, and motivational speaking. She is significantly inspired by her late mother's penchant for prolific storytelling and developing a strong sense of faith. As a survivor of abuse, Wesley believes in passing on the communication skills she developed to cope in those environments. She is also an accomplished playwright with her latest project, a gospel stage play entitled The Beautiful Truth About an Ugly Lie scheduled to be released soon. Please check her website for details. Her greatest accomplishment, however, forever remains becoming a mother to her six beautiful children and “GiGi” to her two grandchildren.
