Hún lauk BA-prófi í sérkennslu árið 1987 og hlaut M.Phil.-gráðu í skólastjórnun og þróun frá University of Northumbria árið 1995. Á starfsferli sínum hefur Valgerður haft djúpa ástríðu fyrir að styðja einstaklinga á taugaþroskasviðinu, og með Davis-aðferðinni hefur hún hjálpað nemendum að finna styrkleika sína og blómstra bæði í skóla og lífi. Hún hefur einnig innleitt Davis Learning Strategies á Íslandi og þjálfað 300–400 kennara til að nota þessi verkfæri í kennslu sinni og ná til fleiri nemenda.
