Bio
Shane Allor
I had the pleasure of working with Valerie at the JW Turnberry where she was one of our senior sales associates. Valerie is very versatile as she handled multiple markets and segments during our time together growing our business in all of them. She is hard working, listens well, is not afraid to ask questions, is open to new challenges, proactive and has a great positive mental attitude.
Heiko Dobrikow
Valerie is the utmost professional and go getter. She truly understands that success comes by building solid relationships first and then develop a win-win strategy. She further thinks beyond her business and invests into her community through volunteerism. Valerie is a hard working, honest and committed leader.
