She has worked in a variety of educational settings such as a camp for troubled youth, a psychiatric hospital, public school special education class, Head of School in a classical Christian school, and 18 years of consulting with schools in over 50 countries. These experiences led her as a Christian educator to seek holy transformation in the life of the learner and to reject socializing students to an external, “Christian” moral code and/or indoctrinating a belief system that wains when the Christian re-enforcement is removed. Helen asks the question, what can educators practically do as co-laborers with the Holy Spirit, to nurture deep and enduring transformation in the life of a learner?
On a personal note, Helen enjoys close bonds with her husband, three grown children and their spouses, and the grand dogs. She adores her girlfriends who, within seconds, can take conversation from deep, existential pondering to boisterous, unrestrained laughter. Despite being sprayed by a skunk, contracting Lyme’s Disease from a tick, and dislocating a shoulder on a muddy trail, Helen’s favorite pastime is experiencing the beauty and adventure of the great outdoors.view less
