Helen Davies was born and educated in the UK. She moved to the Kitchener-Waterloo area in Ontario, Canada, in 2001 with her husband, Mike, and daughters, Katie and Juliette. The adventurous sort, she and her family later embraced the cultural experience of living in Hong Kong for several years before moving back to Canada for her daughters to attend high school. Today, Helen lives in the beautiful British Columbia interior with her husband and two cats, and works as a Chief People and Culture Officer in the tourism industry. Determined to see some good come from her daughter's battle with mental illness and addiction, Helen has become a champion in raising awareness about the needs of those facing similar challenges. She is a family engagement partner with the Assertive Community Treatment Advanced Practice team in British Columbia and a member of Moms Stop The Harm (MSTH). The Rose Bird is her first book and was written to be a support for others in similar situations, and as a call to action for policy makers to address the growing need for change and better fund community supports.
