Helen and I worked together in our early career at an investment bank. She is very knowledgeable, diligent, incredibly hard working and trustworthy. Helen is always professional and I know that I can rely on her for any advice on people matters or business. I am pleased to say that our professional relationship has continued far beyond Daiwa Capital Markets - a testament to her character. Finally, Helen is in essence a Leader, always has been, and makes a massive impact on a workplace!

While working at Natural HR, I ran a popular 'HR Expert' webinar series. Helen and I collaborated on several occasions, and it would be an understatement to say she was a fan favourite with our audience. Not only did she break numerous records (registrations, attendance, questions asked, engagement rate) set by previous guests each time she hosted a session, but the quality and execution of each webinar were of high quality. Helen is a person who is extremely passionate about mental health but also boasts the knowledge to match. In line with her HR expertise, she has all the attributes to transform culture, promote DEI and act as a connection point between leadership and staff.
