Board of Trustees

In her position with Johnson & Johnson’s Global Services, Angelica Valenza focuses on increasing consistency and efficiency in the corporation’s global strategy. Prior to Johnson & Johnson, she served as Chief of Staff for Prudential Advisors and co-chaired Prudential Advisors Inclusion & Diversity Council. Before Prudential, she worked as an organizational development specialist for Hewlett Packard Financial Services. 

Valenza has a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Rutgers University and graduate credits from Rutgers and Columbia University. She is currently enrolled in the Harvard Extension School for Professional Development and is a member of the Association of Latino Professional in Finance and Accounting and Women’s Unlimited, as well as a Fellow of the United Way Project Leadership Program. 

“I’ve always volunteered in the community,” says Valenza, “but I’m excited to be involved on a larger scale. When I learned more about the organization and all it has to offer, it really spoke to my core.”

She sees the diversification of the board from members with legal backgrounds as a unique opportunity to offer a different expertise. “I’m interested in how we leverage that diversity to broaden Legal Services’ reach and help more people. That’s how I’m hoping to help.”
