In this role, Valavanis oversees all business and basketball operations. She was hired as Chief Operating Officer of the Storm on June 18, 2014, elevated to President on Oct. 1, 2014 and promoted to President & General Manager on Jan. 5, 2015. In Valavanis’ first WNBA Draft as General Manager, the Storm used its No. 1 overall pick to select guard Jewell Loyd, who went on to win Rookie of the Year.

Ahead of the 2016 season, the Storm entered into new partnerships with health provider Swedish Medical Center, television station Q13 FOX and automobile dealership Carter Subaru. A native of Valparaiso, Ind., Valavanis came to the Storm with a strong involvement in women’s basketball, both as a former player and coach, uniquely blending with her experience in athletics business operations. Valavanis joined the Storm in 2014 from the University of California, Berkeley, where she was an Assistant Athletics Director of Development. With Cal, she oversaw annual giving, alumni relations and development operations. Valavanis was responsible for annual fundraising efforts, oversaw the ticket-based donation program, established new courtside scholarship programs for both men’s and women’s basketball and drove comprehensive alumni engagement strategies.

LINCOLN AVE. – LINCOLNWOOD, IL 60712 PHONE: (847) 745-4717 - FAX: (847) 673-9382 – WWW.LINCOLNWOODIL.ORG FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Date: June 26, 2018 Contact: Linda Vering, Community Outreach and Marketing Coordinator Phone: (847) 745-4726 Lincolnwood Names Basketball Courts in Honor of Jewell Loyd LINCOLNWOOD, IL – On June 19, 2018 the Village Board announced their unanimous decision to name the Proesel Park basketball courts after longtime resident and WNBA player Jewell Loyd. The basketball courts, located in Proesel Park, the premier park in the Parks and Recreation system, will be named the Jewell Loyd Basketball Courts. The Lincolnwood Parks and Recreation Department is proud to be able to recognize Jewell Loyd with this special honor. The Loyd family has lived in Lincolnwood for over twenty years. Jewell grew up attending Lincolnwood schools, playing basketball at Drake Park and then as a four-year starter at Niles West High School, where she achieved the distinction of becoming an All American and receiving a Division 1 scholarship to the University of Notre Dame. Jewell’s extraordinary athletic ability and performance continued as she became the second underclassman in league history to be the top draft pick in the 2015 WNBA Draft. After being drafted by the Seattle Storm, Jewell received Rookie of the Year Honors and was chosen second- team All-WNBA. Jewell has also helped to increase the awareness and understanding of dyslexia, which she was diagnosed with at a young age. She has since been named an international ambassador for Dyslexic Advantage, and is a spokesperson for Eye to Eye, another organization to help people with learning disabilities.
