Hello, I’m Helen.
exited Founder, Board Advisor + Strategist.
I work with boards, founders and senior leaders to build aligned, commercially successful businesses and influence that lasts.
Over the last decade, I’ve built and scaled businesses across the UK, MENA and Asia, raising investment, partnering with global organisations and exiting for seven figures in 2024.
Alongside this, I’ve raised three children, navigated multiple markets and built a body of work focused on sustainable, meaningful success.
Now I bring that experience into board advisory, leadership strategy and founder support.
If you’re building something that matters, you’re in the right place.

Building IMPACT AND Influence? Here’s HOw
Building a credible market presence that attracts the right opportunities, partnerships and growth—without compromising your values—isn’t easy.
I know that because I’ve done it.
Not only by building businesses, but by creating new categories across multiple markets while raising three children and leading through constant change.
From international media coverage to becoming a LinkedIn Top Voice, I built trusted brands that supported growth, investment and a seven-figure exit.
None of that happened by accident.
It took strategic thinking, commercial discipline and consistent visibility grounded in substance.
Now I help founders, boards and senior leaders do the same.
Whether you are preparing for scale, navigating change, strengthening leadership presence or unlocking new commercial opportunities, this is where we begin.
As an exited founder, advisor and accredited practitioner, I bring a rare blend of operator experience, strategic judgement and human insight.
This is growth—done differently.
Let’s get to work.
