Having studied English Literature at the University of Sussex, before going on to have a career as an actress and performer, it is probably only natural that Helen would have expanded to include narration as a strand of her work. She has been telling stories as long as she can remember. Stories to her parents, stories to her classmates...she has always loved to engage a listener with words, emotion and timing. A British narrator living in West Hollywood, her performing career has encompassed many genres of acting across all mediums, as well as working as a professional puppeteer and circus artist. She toured with Cirque du Soleil for four years, seeing much of the world along the way.
