If you stop by Mars Hill Network’s flagship station in Syracuse, NY, WMHR 102.9FM, you may just find the staff enjoying Valerie’s homemade cookies. When she’s not on the air with her encouraging words throughout the weekday, she’s probably taking care of little ones, Gideon and Ruby, or cooking, one of her favorite pastimes. A part of the Mars Hill Network team since 2006, Valerie has served in many positions, ranging from News Director, “Mornings” Co-host, to “Kids Corner” Producer. She and her husband, Craig, are also active members of their Liverpool, NY, church, teaching a Sunday School Class for Single Adults and leading a “Patch the Pirate Club” for kids.
