A dual-certified run coach (RRCA & UESCA), National Certified Personal Trainer, and Fitness Nutrition Coach, Val brings both professional expertise and real-world experience to every athlete she works with. As a current executive herself, she knows firsthand what it takes to show up for your training when life is demanding and the schedule is full.
Her coaching is built around five core pillars — Have Fun, Build Gradually, Strength & Durability, (W)holistic Nutrition, and Persistent Mindset — creating a sustainable, whole-woman approach to running that goes far beyond a training plan.
Whether you're chasing a PR, crossing your first finish line, or simply running for the joy of it, Coach Val meets you where you are and helps you go further — fueled by plants, driven by purpose.
