Our Founder’s Vision

Built Different. Driven by Purpose. All In for People.

From working long shifts on the production floor to advising executive teams, Minerva Ramirez has spent 15 years in staffing seeing the work from both sides. She’s been the employee counting on someone to pick up the phone and the recruiter taking the late-night call. Those experiences taught her what it means to show up for people when they need you.

Born and raised in Brownsville, Texas, Minerva learned early to look for potential beyond a job title or a list of credentials. That belief still shapes how she recruits, how she leads, and how she works with employers who are ready to try a different approach to a familiar workforce challenge.

Business ownership came as a surprise. When Minerva stepped back from her staffing career, she wanted more freedom to follow through for the people she served. That search led to a leap of faith. She founded Valor Ventures Inc. and became the owner of iBoost Talent Dallas South.

For Minerva, that means taking the time to understand what’s happening on a client’s floor before recommending a solution. It means listening to employees about what they need to succeed and staying involved after their first day on the job. And when the plan falls short, she’ll have the honest conversation, own her part, and work with the team to get it right.

That’s the kind of staffing partnership Minerva is building in Dallas South. She wants employers to have someone they can call when the work gets complicated, and employees to know they can make that same call.
