Helen is originally from the UK. She started her performing arts career as a dancer, and following a job in a show that featured lots of aerialists, she decided to try it for herself. She got the bug!
She went on to work extensively across the cabaret, corporate and festival circuit, including presenting solo work and the renowned Glastonbury Festival Big Top across multiple seasons.
In 2015 she left the UK to join Cirque du Soleil, with whom she toured the world for four years in ‘Toruk’, based on ‘Avatar’.
Now settled in Los Angeles, Helen works as an actress and aerial arts coach. As an actress, film credits include Tim Burton’s ‘Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children’, recent family feature ‘Stinky Summer’, ‘Abduction Runs in the Family’, and ‘The Girl in the Backseat’. TV credits include ‘Obi-Wan Kenobi’, ‘Days of our Lives’, ‘A La Carte’ and Henson Productions’ ‘Math Party’. She has also worked in video games.
Helen coaches at Believe Aerial Studios in Culver City, specializing in rope and silks.
