A photo of me (a mid-30s white lady with brown curly hair). I'm smiling at the camera and wearing a red plaid shirt with a green MECC shirt under it. I'm sitting at a desk with a computer over one shoulder and a guitar over the other.

My name is Veronica

…and I explain things. Greetings!

I make videos on PeerTube/YouTube and occasionally write about stuff here. I also sell channel merch here. I’m (so far) not sponsored, except by you all. Thank you!
