Hi! I'm Valerie 👋
With 25 years of experience delivering solutions across organizations of all sizes, I have played a pivotal role in numerous project teams. I began my career as a developer before transitioning into project management, where I have successfully led global, cross-functional, and strategic initiatives across industries such as Healthcare, Finance, R&D, HR, Marketing, Sales, Acquisitions & Migrations, Media & Entertainment, Sustainability, and more.
Beyond project execution, I have led project management office (PMO) activities, coached project managers, and implemented project management methodologies, further showcasing my leadership and expertise.
My unique strength lies in blending divergent thinking, creativity, and high energy with sharp focus and results-driven execution. I am the ideal project manager & trainer to drive success—infusing initiatives with both precision and a splash of fun.
