Rachelle Antoine, born in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, and raised in Queens, New York, is a visionary social worker who blends personal experience with a deep passion for service, creativity, and community transformation. She holds a Bachelor’s Degree from York College and a Master’s Degree from Columbia University in social work. Her career spans pivotal roles across public administration, ministry, and community engagement, including leading initiatives with the New York State Assembly, New York City Administration for Children’s Services, and Vine Baptist Church. Rachelle has been at the forefront of community engagement for the $19 billion JFK International Redevelopment Program, ensuring that local communities are empowered through impactful opportunities.
A staunch advocate for creative expression, Rachelle believes in the transformative power of art, fashion, music, and writing. In Trichotomy, her debut book, she opens her heart to readers, sharing a candid, intimate exploration of her personal journey—a raw, authentic process of growth, resilience, and discovering true purpose through intimate experiences.
Deep within every soul lies a strength—wild, resilient, and endlessly renewing—a force that holds the answers we seek. Yet, the weight of life’s burdens, the ache of unspoken questions, unanswered searches, and the silence of unhealed wounds often bury that force beneath the weight of life’s complexities and challenges. Trichotomy: Struggle, Search, Rebirth is a journey through the raw landscapes of struggle, the quiet revelation of self-discovery, and the fires of rebirth that transform us into who we are meant to become.
Through short-dated journal entries, fleeting thoughts, and whispered poems, Rachelle invites you to witness the unfolding of her soul—torn, searching, and mending. These words are not just ink on paper but footprints and tears on the path of transformation. At the end of each chapter, you are invited to revisit who you were—reflecting on your thoughts, experiences that shaped you, and the strength that sustained you through it all.
