Mathis Wackernagel, President, Global Footprint Network
Helena is amazing in uncountable dimensions. She is an extraordinaire recruiter: dedicated, super-networked, fabulous at selecting. With her, the talent in your organization will soar. Her passion for important missions, and her focus to pursue opportunities are infectious. She spans in skills from environmental science to operations and fundraising to program development. She is deeply collaborative, lighthearted, committed, friendly, helpful and unstoppable. Always sweet and helpful, she solves difficult problems and encourages others to deliver their best. Her international exposure is a tremendous asset - from Peace Corps to family connections to professional engagements. I don't think I know anybody knowing more people. She is just a joy to work with.
Stephen Mills, Director of Strategic Partnerships, Climate Reality Project
Helena was my brilliant program officer when she was with the Goldman Foundation and I was at the Sierra Club. I will always be grateful for Helena's leadership and guidance as we collaborated to create the Sierra Club's groundbreaking Human Rights & the Environment Campaign. Helena managed a tight ship, making sure that my grant reports were both informative and on time.

Sharon Kittredge, Talent Partner and CoachHelena and I worked together on a few projects as executive recruiting consultants for Veris Consulting and I'm pleased to recommend her services. It was great working with Helena - she's very professional, thorough and proactive. I really appreciate how collaborative she is and her willingness to jump in and contribute, regardless of how challenging the project or client. She has tremendous depth of knowledge, experience and a strong network within the nonprofit field, making her an ideal search partner for any NGO or organization focused on social innovation.

Chris Allan, Executive Director at Ajabu Advisors LLCI've worked with Helena several times now when we have needed to hire staff (at Global Greengrants Fund). She has an awesome number of contacts in the NGO field, a great sense of what we need, and an ability to combine those to get us great people. She provided excellent advice on how to think about the job announcement we put together to get the best candidates. She is very easy to work with, always organized, and hard working.
