“I have known Jessica for over 5 years. In my role as General Counsel at RetailNext, I led a robust RFP process for a much needed contract management system. While the functionality of Lexion was top-notch, it was Jessica's strong understanding of our unique business requirements, as well as the sincere transparency of the platform's limitations that gave me the confidence to choose Lexion. Since that time, I have been fortunate to collaborate with Jessica on a number of other projects and each time. Jessica is a top leader in her space and once of my most trusted colleagues.”
