She is a Customer Experience leader in the tech industry, where she advocates for users and customers, builds partnerships, and then shares that hard-earned wisdom as a speaker at conferences.

When she is not working or raging against the machine (sometimes the same thing), Camille loves cooking, weight-lifting, traveling, looking at art, and dancing to techno and house music.

Collective Diaspora is a membership-based organization of Black cooperatives and Black-led cooperative support organizations from across the African diaspora.

We are weaving together a transnational Black cooperative support system to challenge the economic isolation faced by Black communities and the extraction of Black wealth that has been taking place in different forms since the Transatlantic Slave Trade.

By deepening our connections and sharing resources, we make our cooperatives and organizations, and in turn our communities, stronger and more resilient.
