My Story

Valerie grew up in Shoreview and is currently attending the University of St. Thomas. She loves all things outdoors such as skiing, wakeboarding, swimming, and going on walks! Some of Valerie’s Live It List items are to go to Europe and to see a concert at the Red Rocks Amphitheater.

Three favorite words: Loyalty. Determination. Positivity.

My why...

From a young age I was taught that success is earned and not given to you. I want to put my best into everything I do to achieve success in my life. I highly value relationships with my peers. I always want to make sure that I am helping people bring out the best in themselves.

Live it List.

• Go to a concert at Red Rocks Amphitheatre
