Event host & Moderator
From separate moments to one coherent experience
As a host, I guide your audience through the event. I do more than simply “link things together” - I build momentum, with attention to timing, atmosphere, and what is happening in the room.
Where it adds value, I engage with speakers or audiences through moderation, interviews, or targeted interventions that deepen and open up the conversation.
I enjoy working with a creative and sometimes unexpected angle. Language plays a central role in this: from sharp phrasing to the use of poetry or other forms that move, surprise, and invite people to see things differently.
Thoughtful and tailored
What do you want people to take away — not only intellectually, but emotionally as well? I help clarify that core intention and translate it into an event flow that feels clear, meaningful, and coherent.
I immerse myself in your themes, get to know the speakers, and align closely where needed. In multilingual settings too, I create trust and cohesion so that everything feels natural and seamless.
During the event, I keep track of the common thread and overall rhythm, while remaining responsive to what emerges in the moment. This creates a balance between structure and spontaneity.
Client reviews
Helena looks beyond content alone and thinks strategically. A great example was the ESSMA workshop in collaboration with Paris Saint-Germain at their new football training centre in Paris.
As moderator, she connected the entire day seamlessly and turned it into one strong story — from presentations on pitch management and non-matchday venue use to the exclusive tour of PSG’s training grounds and facilities. Her moderation gave the day extra allure.
As a panel moderator for one of our clients, Helena gave us peace of mind by thoroughly immersing herself in the topic of the day beforehand and arranging an introductory meeting with the panelists.
The client needed a bilingual moderator well-versed in the subject, and Helena delivered — perfectly, to everyone’s satisfaction.
Her approach is highly professional; she dares to ask challenging questions without coming across as arrogant, and her thorough preparation and guidance ensure that every participant feels at ease.
Highly recommended!
I fondly think back to the time when we worked together in the voice collective Les Liseuses Fabuleuses and brought poetry to life in creative ways in special and sometimes surprisingly unexpected places.
Time and again, you were enthusiastic, dedicated, and passionate about language. Thank you for all those special moments.
Thank you Helena. You did a tremendous job.
Your motivation, high level of preparation and complete implication were the key ingredients that made the moderation of our debate on ‘resilience’ a success.
Your distinctive voice, which conveys calm and clarity, together with your overall presence, quickly put the panelists at ease. This created an open exchange in which also humour could naturally emerge.
