Veronica was born and raised in South Phoenix, Arizona, and she has a strong connect to those living in South Phoenix. Her passion has always been to work with others to create a better society. Some might say her life as a social working began in junior high when she worked to ensure that the students with disabilities had restroom facilities that were equipped to meet their needs. As part of the 4-H group at her school, she often worked with the teacher that served students with sever disabilities. She fell in love with these students, and saw that things needed to change in order to give them equitable access to the restrooms. Through her hard work, the project was accomplished to better the lives of others.

To this day, Veronica continues to make a positive impact on the lives of those that she serves.
