Valérie Obégi
Senior Branch Administrator
Valerie is someone who enjoys listening to others, which lead her to complete a Bachelors in Psychology and Sociology from l’Université de Montréal, as well as a Certificate in Human Resources Management from McGill University. Her experience working as an Investment Representative at CIBC Investor's Edge has given her the opportunity to be a quick thinker. She may not have the solutions to all the issues that she is presented with, but as an advocate of teamwork, she works with her colleagues Calvin and Tina to find the best possible resolution to any given problem. In addition, Valerie is responsible for the exchange and networking group of the young women assistants and associates of the branch for their career development.
Valerie loves the outdoors, as well as baking delicious sweets, but can no longer do so, because she has a sweet little boy to take care of, who craves all of her attention!
