Helena Dea Bala

Helena Dea Bala immigrated to the United States as a child. To make ends meet during those difficult first years, she helped her mother clean houses on the weekends. She graduated Phi Beta Kappa from The George Washington University and worked to become a lawyer and lobbyist in Washington, DC.

Five years in, she now does Craigslist Confessional full time. Find out more at CraigslistConfessional.com.
