Professional Vitae
Business Experiences
Veronica’s entrepreneurial capacities have been eclectic spanning decades. A co-owner in an international fine arts business, she eagerly traveled the world. At the helm of her father’s
firearms profession, she led it out of the red in five months. As the first-born child, that business
was her responsibility, but it wasn’t her heart’s desire. In the faith realm, she inspirationally
headed Invoke the Light Ministries. From fine arts, to firearms, to faith, now as a new author, she oversees Shield Maiden Enterprises, LLC, and The Shield Maidens Social Movement.
In addition to the financial turnaround from a six-figured debt in the firearms business, she
bravely fought lawsuits and won them, headed a white-collar crime investigation, survived an
ATF audit, and not one, but four IRS audits owing nothing to the government. She could enter any business or home and make sense out of its chaos. The same applies to her client’s emotions
and thought processes zeroing in on the deeper issues, as well as her problem-solving skills.
As a hospice worker she was a grief companion caregiver to others at St. Mary’s Hospice, and
to three elderly family members. She acted as either their powers of attorney and/or mediator of countless personal and business matters. Veronica also traveled to over fifty countries, including
to Sacred Sites for week-long Meditations in Chicken Itza and Tikal.
