Helen is a paper engineer, illustrator and author with over fifteen years of experience art directing and creating paper artwork for editorial and advertising clients. She also designs and illustrates interactive and immersive books for both children and adults, including the first pop-up book sent into space.

She teaches BA Illustration and BA Visual Communication at Falmouth University and her own course ‘Pop-up book fundamentals’ is available at Domestika.

She was a co-founder of the London chapter of Ladies, Wine & Design in 2016, along with Emilie Chen - an initiative started by Jessica Walsh (of Sagmeister & Walsh) in New York. They aim to bring together and encourage women in the creative industries and close the statistical gap between the number of women studying and those at the top of the industry.
