Why Helia LOVES Mara
Mara Harwel is the type of doer who knows what she’s good at and, when she’s doing those things, gets them done with a level of confidence and competence that we rarely see. We like leaders who work side by side with their teams to make change, and that’s the exact kind of leader Mara is!
