This episode is Part 2 of a 2-episode series featuring my interview with Veronica Winsch. In this episode, Veronica discusses her experience in graduate school following a career switch from fashion to human development and her professional experiences through Fall 2023, the time of this recording. Veronica earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) SUNY. She also earned a Master’s of Arts specializing in Human Development from the University of New Mexico’s College of Education. She has also earned the Family Infant Toddler (FIT) Certificate from Central New Mexico Community College and a Certificate in Nutritional Counseling from the Institute of Nutrition. She currently works as a Team Leader for Family Recruitment, Registration, and Referral for a non-profit home visiting organization in New Mexico. As is true for all interviewees on this podcast, Veronica’s views are her own as a private citizen and do not reflect the views of her current, former, or future employers.

In this episode, Veronica Winsch discusses her background as a fine arts major and first-generation college student, her remarkable career in the fashion industry, and her decision to engage in a career shift that eventually led her to the field of human development. This episode is a bit of a prequel to “Episode 35: Veronica Discusses Working in the Field of Family Home Visitation.” As is true for all interviewees on this podcast, Veronica’s views are her own as private citizens and do not reflect the views of her current, former, or future employers.
