CHANELLE H. ✦ AI ARCHITECT ✦

Chanelle Henry

Founder, Selah Labs | Product Architect

Founder of Selah and Product Architect. I specialize in the 'last mile' of software development—bridging the gap between AI-generated utility and human-centric design. While the industry races toward automation, I focus on the craft, motion, and psychology that turns a prototype into a product users love.

Professional Experience

Lead Solutions Architect & Strategist

Independent / Consulting

2009 – Present

My practice evolves with the industry. Originally focused on Cloud & Partner Strategy for platforms like AWS and Snowflake, I pivoted in 2022 to specialize in AI Systems Architecture. I now build AI-assisted audit frameworks and partner playbooks that bridge the gap between legacy data and modern intelligence.
