In her 2013 national best-selling book, Secrets of Silicon Valley: What Everyone Else Can Learn from the Innovation Capital of the World, Deborah covers the characteristics of the Silicon Valley ecosystem, the history of how the culture came into being, the future of innovation and exponential technologies, and whether Silicon Valley can be replicated.

A2V’s community of over 100K women nationwide with knowledge and decision-making authority—entrepreneurs, investors, corporate executives, lawyers, accountants, management consultants, literary and speaking agents, media, and other highly successful women—make deals to fast-track opportunities and help get themselves and their organizations to the next level. Some have described Alley to the Valley as the “highest ROI they’ve experienced in a single day,” “life-changing,” and “summer camp for smart women.”

Prior to moving to Silicon Valley, Deborah spent 18 years in Washington, DC, as a former congressional and White House staffer and an on-air commentator for CNN, MSNBC, and CNN.
