Valerie has been fascinated with people’s stories since she listened to her Filipino grandfather tell tales of being treated with honor in his homeland, contrary to the reality of racial inequity he encountered at the time of his immigration. In a bit of full-circle irony, she was invited in 2015 to speak on the importance of rewriting our personal stories and listening to the stories of others at TEDxIIT - her Filipino grandfather’s 1939 alma mater.
Valerie continues to see clients in a small private practice in addition to speaking to professional and community audiences on the importance of narrative and rewriting stories. She has been frequently quoted as an expert in media such as Fox Business and Huffington Post and she will host the storytelling podcast "How to Rewrite History" beginning in June 2016. An active member of the midwest standup comedy and storytelling communities in her free time, Valerie performs regularly, finding life to provide ample content for her work on stage.

Last weekend, I attended TEDx at Illinois Institute of Technology as an audience member - exactly one year since I delivered the talk "How to Rewrite History" that inspired this book. Tonight, I received notification that preorders for the book reached 25% of my goal. I am honored and humbled by your support.
I have three more weeks left for this campaign. As you know, successfully reaching my goal will help me to attract a good publisher. With the momentum you helped create, I am confident this will happen!
THANK YOU! ~Val :-D
