With 15 years of experience generating millions in revenue for Fortune 100 & 500 brands- including AT&T, First Data, and Verifone, Velera personally knows the power of showing up with confidence. Velera’s beginning was far from ideal. She was born to a single teen mom, experienced haunting childhood trauma, and was the first in her family to graduate college.
Today, Velera is a speaker on women’s leadership and development with a voice that “gives listeners permission to be fearless.”
