Born and raised in Los Angeles, a former soccer player for Texas A&M, and an avid world traveler, Helene's wide variety of life experiences and exposure to cultures around the world allow her to offer unique insight and assistance to her clients and audiences.

Her parents encouraged her to work in as many industries as possible while growing up so that she could figure out what she wanted to do by the time she graduated from college. This allowed her to gain work experience starting at the ripe ol’ age of ten as a wood working entrepreneur, babysitter, drive-thru manager, tailor’s assistant in men’s suits, admin clerk in a P&C insurance agency, resident advisor in her dorm and utility clerk in a bank trust department. By the age of twenty-two, she had learned how to manage teams of employees, handle corporate politics and streamline work flows in order to improve efficiency.

Helene’s post-college plan was to make killer money, save it up, then become an English teacher and soccer coach when she turned 30. That way she’d never experience the money problems that her favorite teachers did. (Genius, right?) Her first job out of college was as a well-paid sales trainee in a plumbing warehouse. After witnessing a multitude of corporate inefficiencies and OSHA violations, she re-adjusted her life plan and became an English teacher and soccer coach eight years early.

During the “seven-year itch” in her marriage and teaching career, she sought solace by becoming a serial entrepreneur. She dabbled in writing screenplays, flipped houses (oh yeah, she can patch a roof and re-wire a ceiling fan!), purchased and maintained rental properties, sold cosmetics and founded an e-commerce website – all while working full-time as a teacher and even earning Teacher of the Year honors in her 11^th year of teaching. It was during this period that she became even more obsessed with time management, but also learned the importance of priorities and balance, which caused her to make a major shift in how she worked and lived. She’s still happily married to the same dude, by the way. They go on marriage recharge journeys in a different country every summer and learn how different cultures view work and life.

Since 2006, she’s had the privilege of studying company cultures and industries when working with clients. The legal community. Health care industry. Realtors. Kitchen oil recyclers. Pharmaceutical sales. Commercial fueling. Photographers. Geologists. Doctors. She digs in to study their pain points and then troubleshoots. Solving her clients’ problems and bringing them peace is her passion. Each client gives her more knowledge and case studies – and more solutions for curbing inefficiencies and improving productivity.

You’re still here? Thank you! Or did you skip to the last paragraph for a summation? In either case, here you go:

Helene has studied organization and productivity for nearly 30 years. If you and your team want to streamline your work days to be able to do more in less time, you're in the right place.
