MC/Host · Media Presenter

Your event is in good hands.

Melbourne-based MC/Host and Media Presenter helping audiences feel welcomed, engaged, and connected — while ensuring your event runs smoothly from start to finish.

When you book Chanel, you get more than someone who reads from a script.

You get someone who prepares thoroughly, communicates clearly before your event, adapts in the room when things shift, and makes your guests feel at ease from the moment the evening begins.

Pre-event planning, run sheet and script development, audience engagement, Q&A facilitation, and on-the-day coordination come as standard — because every event deserves that level of care.

Pricing is discussed after learning about your event, because no two events are the same.

Your event looks seamless. Your guests feel it. You can actually be present.

Striving to Find Belonging

In 2025, Chanel delivered her TEDx talk, Striving to Find Belonging, now available globally on the TED platform.

A deeply personal story about her journey to self-acceptance as an Australian-Filipino woman — exploring the hidden cost of trying to fit in through four defining seasons: Belonging, Striving, Acceptance, and Wholeness.

Choose self-acceptance. It will give you the courage to flourish, to align with your purpose, and to dream boldly at every stage of life.
— Chanel Olive
