Rev. Valerie joined us in August of 2018. She earned her M.Div at Union Theological Seminary in 2014 and has served congregations in New York, New Jersey, and Ohio. She completed her congregational internship at the First Unitarian Church of Cleveland in Shaker Heights, Ohio. In 2017 she was a chaplain resident at Saint Francis Hospital in Hartford, CT. Prior to entering seminary, she worked in the non-profit world and was a member of the 4th Universalist Society in New York.
Having long explored earth-centered spirituality, she feels privileged to be serving a beloved Unitarian Universalist community with such a long history of providing service, sanctuary, and spiritual exploration in the heart of the Long Island farm community.
