Colleagues describe her as "Valerie Lafond-Favieres offers a wealth of experience and skills to any project or organization she contributes her time to. I had the privilege of meeting Valerie while sharing the same major of Computer Science at Spelman College. She was a key resource and dependable colleague when it came to group work and study sessions. Always prepared, she had a strategic approach to learning and applying the material we were taught on a daily basis. After graduation I had the opportunity to work directly with Valerie as the Sponsorship Dinner Co-Chair for the annually televised Trumpet Awards held in Atlanta, Georgia. Our deliverable consisted of creating a comprehensive database containing guest information for seating and registration. Valerie took the lead on this project understanding client business needs and proactively replicating them in the technology used for event management. She gave clear and actionable direction to the other staff on hand for the event and I felt comfortable trusting her with final execution. Knowing Valerie for such a long period in both a personal and business capacity, I am comfortable offering a strong recommendation on her behalf for any position that requires project management, leadership and technology expertise."
