Veronica (she/her) supports the AlumNest, special events, and program-wide administrative needs, while also contributing to grant administration, retreat coordination, and open call cycles. She joins the team as an experienced arts advocate. While pursuing an English degree at The Ohio State University, she led several arts communities on campus. Her passion for celebrating culture through storytelling—especially film—led to work in film exhibition, live events and festivals, and artist services. She hopes to combine her understanding of literature and film with her enthusiasm for community programming to create spaces where independent filmmakers and audiences can connect. Veronica is also an avid moviegoer who loves styling vintage fashions, collecting CDs, and writing.
