Helio adds Topete to captive management team

Helio, a captive management and risk consulting services provider, has enlisted Grace Topete to its growing team. In her new role, Topete will primarily be responsible for providing captive management and advisory services to Helio’s clients, with a focus on the Texas market. She comes to Helio with expertise in the nonprofit and education industries, most recently working as director of leadership programmes at Social Venture Partners Dallas. Topete holds a Master of Education’s degree from Southern Methodist University and a Bachelor’s degree in Cognitive Science from the University of Texas. Heather McClure, managing partner at Helio, comments: “The expansion of our presence in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex is a natural progression in Helio’s growth and a response to client needs and our prospect pipeline. Grace’s addition is an important next step to increasing our industry and geographic reach.” Jesse Olsen, chief operating officer at Helio, adds: “Bringing Grace on board will help Helio provide our world-class consulting and services to new clients who can benefit from captive solutions. “Nonprofits in particular suffer from chronic underinsurance. Her network in and knowledge of that space will add meaningful value with far-reaching positive ripple effects.” Topete says: “I have known about the captive industry for years and am excited about the opportunities that lie ahead, especially in bringing these innovative services to industries and regions I care about so much.”
