Biography
Helen is a queer feminist working to build health systems that work for women and girls everywhere.
By day, she’s Chief of Staff at Operation Fistula - a data-driven NGO working to end fistula for every woman, everywhere. By night, she’s an amateur chef, crafter and creative, and community catalyst.
For a decade, Helen has been devoted to maximizing the potential of social impact organizations that provide access points and services to those who have been ignored, unserved, or forgotten. She’s happiest when she is scaling ideas, solving problems, connecting communities, and driving impact.
Helen has a BA from Cambridge and an MA from Yale - both in Theology and Philosophy - so, if you like exploring big questions, she’s ready to sit and reflect, debate and discuss. Coupled with her passion for ideation is a fundamentally operational mindset that wants to get stuff done and make a tangible impact.
As an Oxford local, she’d be happy to share her favorite haunts with you!
