Born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, Chanel Beebe is a creative artist, writer and educator who designs, implements and conducts research on science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics (S.T.E.A.M.) programming. Chanel has a passion for nourishing the critical and social consciousness of youth and is the founder and C.E.O. of a research and design firm focused on social and educational equity (Beebe Arts LLC.)
In 2021, Chanel will graduate with both a Master’s Degree in Industrial Engineering and a Ph.D. in Engineering Education and plans to continue to study socially-situated design and learning experiences. As a growing “socio-technical activist,” Chanel seeks to blend her values of equity, health and sustainability with her formal training as an Industrial Engineer. Ultimately, Chanel hopes her contributions will transform the experience of social reform and well-being for historically disenfranchised people.
