Hello! I'm Ms. Valerie, and I teach Gymnastics at Pep & Pizzazz!

​

Working with children has always been one of my greatest passions.  I love encouraging kids as they learn, grow, and discover all they're capable of.

​

I have been an elementary classroom teacher for seven years and have also enjoyed coaching swimmers, babysitting, and working with children of all ages throughout the years. Every experience has strengthened my belief that children learn best when they feel encouraged, supported, and celebrated.

​

I'm also a proud PepMom! My husband and I have two daughters who absolutely love being part of the PepFam. Watching them experience the confidence, friendships, and joy that Pep offers has made me even more excited to join this incredible team.

​

When I'm not teaching, I enjoy reading, swimming, crafting, baking, and spending time with family and friends. I love creating meaningful moments with the people I care about, and I hope to bring that same warmth and encouragement into my gymnastics classes each week.

​

I'm so excited to be part of the Pep & Pizzazz family and look forward to helping your child grow in strength, confidence, and a love for movement. I can't wait to meet your family this season!
