"It is rare to come across a standout talent who is ridiculously efficient and committed as is Helene. I had the pleasure of working with Helene for RainIons since June’20, helping her with market research and business development. I was always in awe of Helene’s ability to command a room and get people to align behind an idea or task – even those people who were initially on a completely different page. Helene is precise, diligent, and dedicated to any task as I learned working for her. Any employee would be lucky to have Helene as a leader, she completely earns as well as deserves my highest recommendation."
