Rev. Dr. Valerie is an ordained clergy woman and interim pastor with earned Master of Divinity and Doctor of Ministry degrees from GTU schools and PhD in Leadership & Organizational Change from Walden University, Minneapolis. Her service roles in the Women of Color National Network (WOCIM) and regional coordinator in Rise Together Mentor Network supports intergenerational empowerment of millennial leaders across contextual identities.

“Coming of age in the Civil Rights movement and, as a mother of a millennial generation son, I am keenly aware that systemic and structural challenges to freedom have not changed much. Prophetic ministry in the 21st century critically must grapple the issues and stand to support millennial activists with intergenerational voices proclaiming God’s demands for ethical praxis of faith, justice, and love.”
