CHEYENNE SCHELLER
FORENSIC MANAGER
Cheyenne Scheller was born and raised in Southern California and she currently calls Huntington Beach her home. She grew up playing softball, surfing, dirt bike riding, snowboarding, skateboarding and anything else to keep her outside in the sun.
Cheyenne began her working career in the Automotive Business in 2001 and continued for 20 years. Cheyenne worked for manufacturers such as Lexus, Acura, Infiniti, Audi, and Volvo. She started from the bottom and worked her way up in the fast pace and ever-changing industry.
Cheyenne is passionate about a lot of things in life, but most importantly living it. On a good day, she enjoys time with her family, her niece and nephew, her Great Dane, traveling, Disneyland, concerts, and anything to do with sports. Cheyenne spends her free time as an active member of Big Brothers Big Sisters of America, Make-A-Wish Foundation, Community Emergency Rescue Team (CERT), and BraveOnes Foundation. Helping others is something Cheyenne prides herself on both professionally and personally. Cheyenne believes that without her family and friends she wouldn’t be the compassionate woman she is today.
