Valéry grew up in Québec. That’s where she first fell in love with illustration. Dreaming up worlds as a child turned into academic ambition as an adult. She studied at Université Laval and earned a Masters in Interaction Design.

In 2002, when illustration opportunities beckoned out west, Valéry moved to a street in Edmonton where the stop signs say arrête. Home away from home.

Since her move to Alberta, she’s worked with global brands and agencies. And her illustrations have garnered attention far and wide.

When she’s not illustrating, she’s teaching. Valéry instructs for the Visual Communication Design Program at the University of Alberta. She also teaches in the Bachelor of Design program at MacEwan University. By inspiring others, she connects with the spirit of creativity that fueled her dreams as a child. Even though her first home is far away, her craft somehow always brings her back.
