Cheralyn Chok (she/her) is the Executive Director and co-founder of Propel Impact.
Since the inception of Propel Impact in 2019, she has led the organization to train hundreds of young leaders across Canada, developing the programs she would have wanted to take part in years ago. Social and environmental impact have always been core to her work; Cheralyn brings entrepreneurial experience from founding and operating a zero-waste necktie company for seven years (Miley Cyrus bought one in 2015!) and was an early employee at social ventures ChopValue and Awake Labs.
Outside of Propel, Cheralyn serves on the board of the Tribe Network and as an advisory board member of the University of Victoria Impact Investing Hub. She holds a BCom from the University of British Columbia and was named a BCBusiness Top 30 Under 30 in 2022 and one of The Peak’s Emerging Leaders in 2024.
