Employee Spotlight

Valerie Gillis, Staff Accountant

From bookkeeping to handling invoices, Valerie Gillis has excelled in her position as accounting clerk at NAAG. After joining the staff in November 2008, Valerie quickly adapted to her new role. In this capacity, she handles accounts receivable, accounts payable, and other day- to- day accounting tasks. Her love of numbers and colleagues has made for a perfect fit during her short time at NAAG.

Although Valerie has performed well in her new position, she maintains a low-key presence in the office. “I love NAAG and everyone has been really supportive but I usually like staying out of the spotlight,” she joked.

Before joining NAAG, Valerie spent almost five years as payroll coordinator at Birmingham Green, a nonprofit long-term care facility in Manassas, Va. In that role, she routinely dealt with worker’s compensation cases and labor cost analysis.

Valerie is no stranger to the Washington, D.C., area as she was born in the District but has always lived in northern Virginia. She now resides in Centreville, Va., and enjoys reading and traveling in her spare time. Over the past 15 years, she has visited 12 countries in South America and Europe.
