Val Underwood

Val joined Waves in 2026 and is originally from Dallas, Texas. She is passionate about supporting children and families because she believes everyone deserves to feel empowered and confident in their ability to overcome challenges and accomplish hard things. One of the most rewarding parts of her work is partnering with families as they build skills, confidence, and independence in their daily lives.

Outside of work, Val enjoys hiking, reading, doing crafts with her girls, and starting the day with morning porch coffee dates with her husband.
