Bio
Steve Zingsheim
Valerie came to us in the middle of the year...a tough assignment in 8th grade. She quickly meshed with our four person team and the 100+ students she was charged with. She was extremely personable, highly motivated and hard working - just the traits we tried to pass on to our 8th grade students each day. Valerie is an effective communicator and teammate - consider me a "raving fan"!
Heidi Mortensen
Valerie is a very talented problem-solver. She's open to new ideas and works diligently to find solutions. She's detailed-oriented but also sees the big picture. Two major projects she worked on at Baird were a website update and the first company brand update in years. Both had an extrodinary number of moving parts, but she organized the process in a way that helped the entire team to understand the steps and complete both projects in a successful manner.
