On what was supposed to be a short trip home, this Temple native quickly realized that the heart of Central Texas has everything and more to foster an excellent quality of life.
“I’m a business owner. We are a marketing collective, specializing in web development, messaging, strategy, and creative. I wouldn’t want to do that anywhere but Temple.”
Supported by a pro-business community, Jordan Valentin never feels short of having the resources to help her professionally soar to new heights.
“The thing that has been most important for me in business has been understanding the importance of relationships. The community is very supportive of growth and economic development. Because of that, there are numerous networking opportunities available at all times; there are so many ways to get involved and meet people.”
When Jordan isn’t running her own company, you can find her spearheading inclusivity movements across the city, giving back to Temple Independent School District, or integrating herself into the many essential committees that work towards Temple’s continuous improvement.
“Growing up, Temple has always been diverse. As I’ve gotten older, I appreciate that so much. Temple is a growing, thriving city that is very easy to settle into and be a part of.”
Jordan not only sits as President of Love Temple, TX, but also is a part of the Executive Community Board of Temple Education, DEI Commision, and District Educational Improvement Community (DEIC).
“We consider ourselves so lucky to live in the neighborhood that we live in. We’re so close with our neighbors. Most of the hangs are totally impromptu. We just have a tight knit community of people that live very close to us.”
