About Valerie

Hello! I am Valerie, a Certified Professional Coach. My passion lies in helping people uncover their potential, navigate life’s challenges, and achieve their goals with clarity and confidence. As an HR leader with over 20 years’ experience in high-tech human resources, I bring a wealth of expertise in active listening, emotional intelligence, and goal setting. I’ve spent my career supporting individuals through transitions, resolving complex conflicts, and fostering growth. Now, I channel these skills into coaching to guide my clients in creating actionable strategies for success and fulfillment. Beyond coaching, I am an avid traveler who has visited 16 countries, enriching my perspective and cultural understanding. I enjoy scuba diving, playing pickleball, and exploring local wineries, blending adventure, fitness, and community into my life. I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area of California, and feel fortunate to have this as my hub from which to explore! My coaching approach combines empathy, strategic insight, and a results-driven mindset to ensure each coaching session is impactful and transformative. Together, we will uncover what’s holding you back, explore new possibilities, and create a path forward that feels authentic and achievable. I specialize in: - Career Transitions: Whether you’re changing career paths or advancing in your current career, I help you design a future and that aligns with your values and aspirations. - Personal Growth: Overcome obstacles, gain self-awareness, and embrace your full potential with tailored guidance and support. - Work-Life Harmony: Find balance and clarity to thrive both at work and in life. - Wellness: Develop sustainable habits for physical and mental well-being, empowering you to achieve your health goals and live a vibrant, balanced life.
