Her journey includes 20 years of experience working in Aboriginal affairs in remote Indigenous communities in north Western Australia and the Northern Territory. Tourism has been her key focus for the past 15 years being heavily engaged with the East Arnhem Land community. Prior to going into the tourism business, Helen was a public servant for 17 years. She is also passionate about food and cooking and excited about incorporating the island’s native ingredients into that retreat. You're going to love this episode!
