ABOUT VERONICA ARREOLA

To sum it all up is to say that I tell stories. I tell mine and I help others tell theirs. Political campaigns are stories about why you should vote for someone. Social media accounts can be stories about things you want to teach others. I’m also a skilled project manager because storytelling requires structure everywhere. My specialty is to take academic scholarship and make it accessible to the general public. My writing has appeared in The New York Times, USA Today, and NPR; I am a frequent guest on Chicago Public Media. In addition, I have contributed to anthologies such as “Love Her, Love Her Not: The Hillary Paradox” and authored a children’s book, “J is for Justice: An Activism Alphabet Book.”
