Helene built her career dedicated to helping others as a Critical Care Registered Nurse (CCRN, BSN). After sustaining a shoulder injury that prevented her from completing the physical demands of bedside nursing, she transitioned into a desk-based nursing role. Recognizing the health risks associated with a sedentary lifestyle, she began focusing on proper nutrition and exercising with home workout videos. However, she quickly found that most available programs catered primarily to young, already-fit individuals, forcing her to modify the routines to accommodate her injury.

When searching for exercise programs designed specifically for individuals over 50 or those seeking lower-impact fitness, Helene discovered a clear gap in available resources. Recognizing this need, she joined forces with her sister, Jean Anne, to co-found Look Who's Dancing. Through this venture, Helene applies her extensive clinical nursing knowledge toward a passion for proactive health and accessible fitness tailored for underserved populations.
