略歴

Film Producer and Screenwriter - Veronica has been writing and producing short scripts and feature-length screenplays for well over 25 years. She resides in Burbank, California and is an accredited and award-winning film producer, scriptwriter/consultant/editor, ghostwriter, author/poet, podcast show co-host, website designer and voice-over artist, specializing in local and national TV commercial, radio ads, video game, TV and film animation work. Ronni or Jade, as most call her, was lucky enough to be cast from a very early age as a background extra for the films, Foxes (1980) and Starman (1984). It was at that point Veronica said she fell in love with the art of film production. Veronica attributes her opportunities and passion for filmmaking to her mother who supported her dreams, giving her support and words of encouragement and who, painstakingly, drove many, long hours to take her daughter to several auditions. Veronica auditioned for a small role in the film, Natural Born Killers (1994), but did not get the part and decided, instead, to pursue the craft of screenwriting and film production, working behind the camera. As a realist, Veronica has also raised a family and worked regular jobs to make ends meet while pursuing her film/writing career, including but not limited to, factory machine operating, security detail and a data conversion operator for the USPS. A huge movie buff since first seeing Star Wars (1977) in the theater with her mother at seven years old, Veronica's drive for succeeding in the film industry stems from not only knowing that everyone has a story to be told, but also yearning to leave a little part of herself for future generations to hopefully appreciate. She thrives on the reactions of an audience in a dimly lit theater when a scene has captured their attention. Veronica, as do most people, lives out her fantasies, vicariously, through movies on the big screen, be they short story videos/animation or major feature-length films, from silent movies to "talkies." It's the love of watching a cast and crew, work together, to put a puzzle together, the outcome is that of a memorable film for all to enjoy and remember for years to come. When not working, Veronica volunteers some of her time to charities like S.O.S.C.(Special Olympics Southern California). She is also a major advocate for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital for over 10 years, as well as a proponent for L.G.B.T.Q. equality, R.A.I.N.N. (Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network) and a staunch supporter of the M.A.D.D (Mothers Against Drunk Driving) organization.
