Valerie Gladu - Campus Ministry: Staff Coaching and Training
Valerie has served students in a variety of capacities at UMBC over the years, including chapter planting, working with the vision team, and helping students grow in their ability to share their faith both clearly and respectfully. Currently her focus is on coaching and training leaders and shaping opportunities for men and women to explore ongoing partnership with InterVarsity after college. Valerie is passionate about seeing students know and follow Jesus in the context of God's multi-ethnic and multi-cultural community. It is in that context of community that faith takes on flesh and can be lived out in love and truth in truly transformational ways.
In addition to working with students at UMBC, Valerie is a part of the Mid Atlantic Region's Black Campus Ministry, serving students in PA, DE, MD, and DC.
