Helene Montoban
Conference Registration Specialist, NAAHP Conference (2024)
Compliance Officer, Republic Bank of Haiti

My name is Helene Montoban, and I am an entrepreneur, compliance professional, and community advocate. I co-founded Fondation Montoban, a non-profit organization focused on community development and empowering the next generation in Haiti.
Additionally, I am building Be-you-tiful Black Beauty, a brand that celebrates diversity in beauty standards while promoting self-love and confidence among individuals of all backgrounds. In my professional role, I have over eight years of experience as a Compliance Officer, where I ensure that financial institutions adhere to legal standards and internal policies.
My work involves identifying and mitigating risks associated with non-compliance, which has allowed me to become well-versed in regulatory frameworks and best practices in the financial sector.
Professionally, I am proud of my contributions to helping organizations maintain integrity and transparency while also supporting community-driven initiatives through my foundation. My entrepreneurial efforts have led to the creation of a brand that challenges conventional beauty standards, offering a platform for underrepresented voices.
Passionate about entrepreneurship and social responsibility, I believe that businesses can be powerful tools for social change. My values revolve around the importance of uplifting marginalized communities, particularly through education, health, and empowerment initiatives in Haiti.
I studied Management Information Systems at the University College of the Caribbean in Jamaica, where I obtained an associate degree. I also pursued a degree in Business Administration at the University of Quisqueya. My education provided me with essential knowledge in management, finance, and marketing, which has been invaluable throughout my professional journey. My dream is to earn a master’s degree in Health Administration to further support my hometown of Fond-des-Nègres (Duverger).
