== Biography[edit] ==
At a young age, Strand started off doing stunts on Look Who's Talking Now with her twin sister, Michelle. Strand began working on many projects including The Outer Limits, The Commish, The Charlie Horse Music Pizza, Life-Size, Air Bud: World Pup, Air Bud: Seventh Inning Fetch and Air Bud: Spikes Back throughout her elementary and high school years. In 2010, Strand graduated from Capilano University with an Associate of Arts degree and then transferred to the University of British Columbia, graduating in 2013 with a Bachelor of Arts degree. Strand completed a Master of Journalism degree at the University of British Columbia in 2016.[2] She has published articles with The Tyee.[3]

Chantal provided various voice-over roles in such cartoon shows as Generation O, Dragon Tales, Hamtaro, and Sabrina: The Animated Series, in which she played the characters of Gem, Pi, and Bernard. She played Lacus Clyne in Gundam SEED, and Gundam SEED Destiny, in which she voiced both Lacus Clyne and Meer Campbell. After Lamb Chop's Play-Along came to an end Chantal was cast as Holly in the short-lived spin off The Charlie Horse Music Pizza starring Shari Lewis and Lamb Chop. The Charlie Horse Music Pizza was canceled on August 3, 1998 after Shari died from uterine cancer and viral pneumonia.[citation needed]
