Summary
Valerie Schrock is a multidisciplinary entrepreneur and partner based in Hyattsville, MD, with seven years of focused experience building web-based systems and real estate investment communities. As co-founder of Maverick Investor Group and owner of Valkyrie Ventures, she combines hands-on deal sourcing and investor coordination with web architecture and multimedia design to scale both for-profit and nonprofit initiatives. Her background as a creative director and grassroots organizer informs a strengths-based approach to advocacy, membership growth, and digital campaign design—often implemented through Drupal and social media crowd-sourcing. Equally at home coding and crafting animation, video, and audio, she brings a rare blend of technical, creative, and operational skills to projects that aim to generate wealth and social impact. Outside work she channels curiosity into adventurous hobbies—from jazz trumpet to homebrewing—which subtly fuels her experimental, maker mindset.
