After attending the illustrious Spelman College and earning a B.S. in Chemistry, Valerie Flores followed her innate passion and assumed the role of a competitive gymnastics coach for over 15 years. Her career provided her with opportunities to travel across the U.S. with her athletes, connecting with them as a teacher and as a mentor. Committed to the empowerment of young minds, Valerie is now using her dual master’s degree in Psychological and School Counseling and an advanced certificate in College Advising from Teachers College at Columbia University to serve in the NYC Department of Education as a high school college/guidance counselor. Recognizing that students have diverse needs, Valerie has been at the forefront of planning school-based interventions around wellness, mental health, and positive identity development. Specializing in college admissions counseling, Valerie works to increase access for historically marginalized populations by transforming procedures and policies, so they reflect the needs of all ethnicities and backgrounds. You may find Valerie cycling, traveling, or trying out a new restaurant when not at her high school. She is a lover of humanity and believes in the words of author C.S. Lewis who stated, “There are far, far better things ahead than any we leave behind.”More...
