what makes veronica different?
-
Politics.
Veronica believes that everything is political. What does this mean? She believes there is a clear and egregious wealth gap supported by years of colonization, exploitation, racism, homophobia, transphobia, and misogyny. That’s why she doesn’t work in sales. Veronica uses her skills for good, helping Real People with Real Problems. Mutual aid and community are core values in Veronica’s life and work. She wants to help you connect with your community resources, not just because it’s the most successful way to ask for help, but because she wants you to feel communal security alongside financial security.
-
Holistic Education.
Veronica has an M.A. and B.A. in American Studies (Storytelling, culture, folklore, and history), and a B.S. in Sociology. Put those together, and you get a cultural storytelling expert who knows people. Veronica’s area of research specialty is social movements. She’s specifically studied the way that culture and politics overlap with strong social movements, what makes a movement strong, and how movements emerge. But more importantly, Veronica attributes most of her knowledge to ten years of hands-on work in the organizing world. Lived experience has been one of her best teachers, and she believes education should be used for liberation, not gatekeeping. She’s here to share what she learned.

Collaboration.
Veronica works with you to find solutions. She’s a coach and a consultant, not a steamroller. She listens to your unique situation - whether you’re a 1-man-show nonprofit or an individual who needs a life saving surgery. She knows that people don’t ask for help if they don’t need it. She trusts you fully and wholly to make your own decisions in this process. With that being said, Veronica will meet with you over the course of the campaign preparations and launch. She asks you to participate in the process by giving her valuable information, like your current reach and relationships. We goal map together to find the best avenues for help.
