Jess Skylar

Twenty years in and Jess still gets excited about turning big ideas into reality. Throughout her career, she’s partnered with mission-driven organizations across education, tech, financial services, and social impact to solve complex challenges and create sustainable change. Whether helping scale Revolution Foods from $14M to $170M, co-building Think of Us to be a national systems change leader, or launching one of the first social impact investing firms with HIP Investor, she focuses on building organizations that make lasting impact possible. Now, she’s co-creating Helia Collective to be a practical partner providing hands-on support that all organizations can turn to when they’re stuck. When she’s not working alongside incredible organizations, you’ll find her in sunny Los Angeles with her teens, hiking with her 110-pound pup, or reading in her hammock, always rooting for the Dodgers and often with a breakfast burrito in her hand.
