Tomás Morales said...

Verónica was born in 1981 in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria in Materno Infantil hospital. She had many problems to be born, because she was badly placed in her mother's womb. In the end, whe was born without problems. This is the reason of her name “Verónica”, because it means, in the Classical Greek, “the one who gets the victory”.
She grew up in Guanarteme, where she still lives with her parents.
Since she was little was very active and loved to dance, in fact, she acts at home for her fathers’s friends. It was what she liked most, dancing and the beach.
Her Primary and Secondary Education passed an in state school because her parents thought it was the best for her education. The subjects that caught her attention more than the others, were always related to creativity. She don’t liked History, Literature, Maths or Biologia. She liked Art, Design, Languages, Physical Education, subjets where she could move and develope her interests.
He graduated from the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria in Industrial Design five years ago, in 2006.
At this moment, she is looking for a job that allows her to get independence from her parents and able to travel, which is another thing that she likes so much, and continues practicing dance.
I hope her name is correct and she gets the victory in all.
