#8 Hellen Yuan on Being Confident, Focused, & Unstoppable in the Face of Adversity
Hellen Yuan was a New York-based wellness practitioner, foodie, designer and entrepreneur with over 20 years’ experience in the luxury, ready-to-wear fashion industry. Born in Taiwan and raised in Los Angeles, Hellen’s life was always a blend of east and west mentalities. She was instrumental in launching designer labels such as HELLESSY, 6397, AREA and more. She used these design and business skills to develop as an entrepreneur and actualize her passion project, HELLEN, a collection of thoughtfully curated self-care tools.
