Luminary was founded in 2016 by Valerie Ellis Lavin, a retired Army First Sergeant, with over 21 years of service to her country. Her passion for serving extended past retirement and put her on a quest to find a way to serve those who serve. The first step on her journey was to dive in headfirst to local Veteran Entrepreneurship ecosystem. This led to multiple leadership roles with state and local organizations advocating for Veteran Entrepreneurship. This experience allowed her to identify a way to serve not only her brothers and sisters on the battlefield but those serving domestically as well. From that Luminary was born.
