Coach Veronica was born in Burlingame, California but has lived all around the Bay Area, from the Peninsula to the East Bay. After graduating from Arroyo High School in 2017, she went on to play basketball at the University of the Southwest in New Mexico. She also took on running cross country and qualified for the NAIA Nationals in 2019. She received both a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Criminology and Criminal Justice. Veronica then decided to move back to the Bay Area in 2022 where she was able to help out with an AAU club and work with girls of all ages along with being a Frosh head coach and helped assist the JV and varsity girls basketball teams. Working alongside her former AAU coaches helped her find her passion of giving back to the basketball community. Veronica is excited to be apart of the UPB family and to get to know the community.
