Born and raised in Johannesburg, South Africa, Helen studied architecture at WITS before interning at a number of practices in Jo'burg, London and Amsterdam - mostly with an Urban Design and Residential focus.

She joined KWA in 2010 and spent the intervening years honing her craft and learning everything she could from her mentor, the late Karen Wygers.  

She specializes in high end residential projects, both renovations and new builds, with an interest in the greater urban environment.

Passionate about the true value of good design, she shows care and consideration for her clients desires and their budgets.  

She believes that the best projects are a product of teamwork, and has cultivated long term relationships with a trusted network of top suppliers and consultants, as well as her clients.

Helen has a Masters in Architecture (Professional) and is a registered Professional Architect (SACAP # 21259).
