He is always an absolute pleasure to work with when collaborating with his hair and makeup teams to create weekly characters for the show. We are honored and thrilled that Val is going to bring his charm as host of the ‘Red Carpet Livestream’ at our MUAHS Awards this year,” says Julie Socash, President of the Make-Up Artists & Hair Stylists Guild.

A 14-time US National Champion and two-time World Dance Champion, Val rose to stardom as a fan-favorite professional. Val also appeared in the 2021 award-winning Amazon Prime film “Being the Ricardos.” He has since appeared on numerous television shows, including Netflix's “Fuller House” and Fox's “Flirty Dancing,” and served as a judge on the inaugural season of “Dancing with the Stars: Juniors.” Val has starred in six DWTS national tours, eventually co-writing and co-directing his very own 55-city North American tour “Our Way” as well as additional sold-out national tours including “Confidential” and “Stripped Down.”

In 2018, Val released his first memoir titled "I'll Never Change My Name," which detailed his life, career, and experience as an Eastern European immigrant. As a classically trained violinist, Val has performed at Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center.

Val is the co-founder and owner of Dance with Me Studios, a leading nationwide network of dance studios with the mission of making dance accessible to all people regardless of skill level.
