Family Values
by Genevieve Valentine, J.Valentine, S.White, M.Vera, E.Duarte, & G.Costa
Last weekend, I stumbled across a box of keepsakes and I became sentimental when I pulled out 2 specific photos. The first photo was of the summer of my 16th birthday. I was standing outside the Fremont office with Matt Vera (also 16 years old in the photo), Steve White, Ed Duarte, my cousin Zach (3 years old in the photo), and my Uncle John. Hooked to the back of the photo, was a photo of my 21st birthday. The whole office was in the picture (including those from the first picture) and a few Chevron retirees, who are a part of my office family. When I saw the pictures, I immediately called Matt to reminisce about the good old days. This conversation furthered my need to reflect on the office. In this process, I realized how the office has not only directly impacted my life but the lives of our clients, prospective clients and my teammates and their families. Thus, we decided to write an article (in our own words) about moments in Valentine Capital’s history that makes us uniquely different than any other investment firm out there.
