An Ode to Helena - from the ๐ฅBacon Brigade
7 March 2025
@gtn:hexylena, as a key member of the phenomenally creative and passionate Galaxy Training Network team alongside @gtn:shiltemann and @gtn:bebatut, pioneered the concept of Training Infrastructure. In a world dominated by clunky virtual learning environments and expensive software, she built an open-source system that could seamlessly support individual users, trainers, and contributors across diverse disciplines and expertise levels.
