With a mission to ensure no one loses their job—or dignity—over a natural biological process, Chaste launched Sanicle.cloud with just $25 and scaled it into a solution addressing the $150 billion in productivity losses tied to menstrual and menopause-related absenteeism.

His work sits at the intersection of technology, health equity, and climate resilience.

As an award-winning social entrepreneur and policy advocate, Chaste’s global thought leadership spans UN systems, Fortune 500 partnerships, and grassroots innovation.

His leadership was also recognized at UNGA, where he championed menstrual equity as a core element of SDG action.

Chaste’s initiatives have delivered over 29,000 biodegradable period kits across Nigeria, Kenya, and the U.S., while advancing climate-smart interventions such as solar-powered menstrual hygiene dispensers in off-grid communities.

He led the Save Pwashikai Nideono campaign against female genital mutilation and co-founded Giving Garage, a circular innovation project awarded the 2015 Summit Creative Award.

Through Climate & Cycle, he educates youth on the link between menstruation and climate change.

As co-drafter of the Menstrual Waste Reduction Act, he works to regulate single-use plastic products and promote sustainable alternatives.

He is the author of Bomesi and The Period Passport, and the founder of #S6startUP, a digital storytelling platform that has generated over 26 million impressions, featured 106 African entrepreneurs, and been showcased at global convenings such as the Global Child Forum and the UN DPI Conference.

His thought leadership has also been featured in published op-eds and research papers in top-tier platforms, where he advocates for sustainable menstrual health solutions as a critical strategy for climate resilience and environmental justice.

Chaste holds credentials from the Founder Institute Silicon Valley, Pan-Atlantic University, and the University of Washington.

He is a Presidential Service Award honoree, recipient of the Afrifamu Community Achievement Award, Manevia African Leadership Award, and most recently recognized by Marquis Who’s Who for his impact in sustainable women’s health and artificial intelligence.

He was honored by the Oklahoma Legislative Black Caucus for hosting the inaugural Black Menstrual Summit, and continues to advocate through community development, including partnerships with Climate Wednesday and BudgIT, as well as philanthropic work supporting the Down Syndrome Foundation and Holy Family Home for the Elderly.

As a Universal Peace Federation Young Ambassador of Peace, Social Sector Management Scholar, and nationally recognized thought leader, Chaste draws from intimate conversations with Fortune 500 CEOs, UN leaders, and athletes to reimagine systems that elevate underrepresented voices.

Whether engaging AI innovators at Google, policymakers at the World Bank, or young changemakers across Africa, Chaste’s throughline is clear: the future of work must include the future of wellness.

His advocacy, strategy, and execution model a new generation of African leadership—technologically fluent, mission-centered, and globally catalytic.
