Growing up in West Michigan, Valerie often finds herself heading for the beach or off to the lake. There she enjoys water skiing, swimming, tubing and if the conditions are right, wind surfing. She comes from a family that values vacations and visited many of the National Parks in her childhood, sparking her passion for finding time to get away and head for mountains. Last summer she and her family drove out west for a 5-day backpacking trip to the Maroon Bells on the very trail her parents had hiked 35 years prior. Another favorite family tradition is the annual spring trip to Colorado for six days of skiing. However, when Valerie can’t get away, she enjoys having a relaxing night talking with a couple close friends over a Grand Rapids craft beer and listening to some alternative rock. Her favorite band is The Killers, and she admits that she probably likes them a little too much for holding two degrees in classical music. Valerie also enjoys biking, knitting and watching movies to relax in her day to day life. She takes full advantage of student discount tickets in Chicago and tries to attend many different operas, operettas, concerts, and musicals every week. https://valerie-beck.com/home daily 0.75 2019-05-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59dd9a49f09ca4709b95c537/1585082235706-OEMM6GL0555RFMEKZQW6/DidoandAeneas2-page-001%2Bbetter%2Bquality.jpg Home https://valerie-beck.com/contact daily 0.75 2019-09-18 https://valerie-beck.com/projects daily 0.75 2026-03-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59dd9a49f09ca4709b95c537/1585173221982-R5JS7AVYM8N1D622LCSU/hawaii.jpg Projects & Performances https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59dd9a49f09ca4709b95c537/1585168204006-9TOE6IGO3JX1G6GWCOPA/vail2020.jpg Projects & Performances https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59dd9a49f09ca4709b95c537/e88556d1-6872-4f26-8229-e3e826891d58/244274362_220083756695957_2767131909696369115_n.jpg Projects & Performances - Make it stand out Backpacking the Porcupine Mountains in Michigan https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59dd9a49f09ca4709b95c537/439ccc20-47b9-43c6-b887-eb127820ccee/243793297_6323495711057243_363081847497858577_n.jpg Projects & Performances - Make it stand out Lunch break on Lake Superior https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59dd9a49f09ca4709b95c537/892c1140-a4d1-41c0-b575-9e835a398878/IMG_8733.jpg Projects & Performances - Make it stand out Camping Shenanigans https://valerie-beck.com/events daily 0.75 2020-03-24 https://valerie-beck.com/what-we-do-2 daily 0.75 2020-03-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52a74d9ae4b0253945d2aee9/1390513380961-PTHFXE5U2S1FJSLPXUSD/tumblr_mh1iruZWLf1rkz363o1_1280.jpg What We Do https://valerie-beck.com/bio daily 0.75 2026-03-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59dd9a49f09ca4709b95c537/1585173427164-29X5UODZJ6OIUE4C4NAG/mountains.jpg Bio https://valerie-beck.com/what-we-do-3 daily 0.75 2020-03-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52a74d9ae4b0253945d2aee9/1390513380961-PTHFXE5U2S1FJSLPXUSD/tumblr_mh1iruZWLf1rkz363o1_1280.jpg What We Do https://valerie-beck.com/events-1 daily 0.75 2020-03-24 https://valerie-beck.com/home-1 daily 1.0 2026-03-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59dd9a49f09ca4709b95c537/1585174649118-0TLVKZPKJH4PCXFH11NZ/water+and+flowers.jpg Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59dd9a49f09ca4709b95c537/1585155986790-5CKUC389U7ZMQ6E58ER7/hanginglk2020.jpg Home - Say Cheese!
