About

Hi I'm Helen.
Graduated from University of Southampton, UK with a BSc (Hons) in Politics and International Relations
Started work as a temporary role in a technology company covering for maternity leave and never left. Started in customer services, moved to Service marketing, Order Management, back to Marketing. Spent 15 years at my first job, and 20 years at the next. Now working in Product Management at the GBU (Global) level. Been acquired twice.

Even though I spent many years in one company, I moved into different departments, met new people, learned new skills, and gradually got promoted.

My degree gave me life and work skills. I didn't necessarily use the topic, it was the abilities I learned that have helped me though my career.

Later in life I started writing and have now self-published 13 award winning fantasy books, achieved the USA Today Bestseller list, and seen two of my books up in Times Square, New York.
