Valentina DeHaven

Office Manager & Executive Assistant

Valentina keeps the gears turning behind the scenes. Her main responsibilities include bookkeeping, AP & AR, payroll, HR, and social media for both the Raleigh and mountain region projects. She thrives in structured environments and has helped implement processes that streamline workflow at Northgate. She takes an on-the-spot approach to problem-solving, handling tasks as they arise.

When she’s not keeping the office in shape, Valentina is off exploring the world. She and her husband recently spent six months traveling 10,000 miles across the U.S. in an RV. She also loves traveling internationally, collecting passport stamps from places all over the world. She enjoys gardening, home renovation projects, and tries to spend as much time at the beach as possible.

Her personal philosophy is rooted in compassion and empathy, both in her career and life. She values the camaraderie of her team, appreciating how well everyone works together. At Northgate, Valentina makes sure the workplace is structured but stress-free, turning organized chaos into actual organization. Her ability to adapt, problem-solve, and support her team makes her an essential part of Northgate.
