Vice President of investor relations
Shane Helmker
Prior to joining Hermers Capital, Shane Helmker has owned his own business as a general contractor, doing construction projects in multiple states. He met Felix Perez a few years ago when they worked together on a project, and the two realized that they had a common worldview for investing and had complementary strengths and skill sets to make a great team. Shane started his career working in direct sales, and his sales skills and entrepreneurial attitude have been a source of inspiration for the rest of his career. He is an intuitive, relationship-oriented sales professional who has keen insights into people’s motivations, who knows how to build credibility, and who has a sixth sense for finding viable real estate opportunities, not just by crunching numbers, but by understanding how people work.
