Valerie’s work has appeared in HuffPost, Thought Catalog, The Prairie Review, Medium, Revoloon, and The Mighty. She is the voice behind Old Soul Searching, a self-development blog that invites readers to find clarity through reflection and embrace the beautiful chaos of being human.

Currently pursuing her Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, Valerie deepens her commitment to writing about identity, healing, and the psychological terrain of the self. As a former nomad who spent years living abroad, both on land and at sea, she is now rooted in Denver, where she continues exploring the depths of the human experience through her writing.

Her debut memoir, Lost on Purpose, is slated for release in November 2027 with Vine Leaves Press.
