We are on the other side of the world, but Valeria is out there helping me and my friend without ever had the chance to meet, in real life. I'm sure she helps everyone as she helps me. Thank you!

Effervescent. That is the word that comes to mind when I think of Valeria. Not only is she is engaging, warm and sincere, she is also incredibly focused and results driven. In the short time I have had the pleasure of working with Valeria I have been truly impressed.
