Known as "V" by family and friends, Valerie was born on the southside of Chicago and raised in the Mohave Valley of western Arizona. She struggled with her identity and fitting in, leading to bouts of depression, anxiety, and other health issues. The passing of her grandma from a battle with cancer, her own personal health, and spiritual struggles lit a fire inside of her. She desired to seek God deeper and have a better understanding of health and healing.  She spent the following 20 years studying Biblical scripture, world Spirituality and natural health.  She obtained a license in cosmetology and began her beauty and wellness business. After surviving trauma in her personal life, she discovered the keys to transformation and broke free from religious constraints and traditional methods. She specialises in several avenues in the beauty and wellness industry, but has a special passion for helping women recover from the emotional effects of trauma and discover their true beauty from within. Rooted in spiritual philosophy, she embodies a mixture of deep spirituality and biblical theology, though she meets each person right where they are on their journey without judgment. She has multiple certifications, which allow her to offer an eclectic array of services to most any client. Her goal is to inspire others to take faith and wellness beyond the typical settings and look inward. She wholeheartedly clings to the belief that our bodies are fearfully and wonderfully made and are capable of healing themselves, given the proper attention. She attended Trinity School of Natural Health to become a Certified Holistic Health Practitioner and Certified Lyme Specialist. She is now an instructor at Trinity School of Natural Health, a speaker, writer, mixed martial artist, singer, chef, philanthropist, and cosmetologist, but most importantly, an advocate for healing.

 Her heart posture is always to help cultivate inner beauty and wellness in everyone she meets.
