Veronica Frances Scheyving (Oliveto),a multi-talented individual, was born and raised in Los Angeles. As a young girl, she was fascinated by the world of performing arts, inspired by her idol Lesley Ann Warren in the TV musical "Cinderella" at the tender age of seven. Growing up, Veronica was the eldest of six children, and her aspirations to become an actor, singer, and performer seemed like a distant dream.
Veronica's early life was marked by taking piano lessons, performing at local venues such as Shakey's Pizza Parlour, singing in school choirs, and even landing a role as a saint in a religious play in the third grade. After years of working behind the scenes in the music and animation industries, Veronica found herself re-evaluating her life and career goals at the turn of the millennium.
With a keen sense of self-awareness and a drive to achieve her aspirations, Veronica took a career assessment test that revealed her innate talent for performing. This newfound insight sparked a creative resurgence, and Veronica's career trajectory began to take shape.
As a performer, Veronica has accumulated an impressive array of credits, including over 46 musical and theatrical productions, 29 films, 16 TV shows, and numerous internet projects, music videos, hosting, commercial, and industrial projects. Some of her notable roles include sharing the screen with Dylan McDermott in the Funny-or-Die production of "The Douce'" and Jason Alexander in "Donny Clay: Just Doo It."
Veronica's feature film credits include "Tell Me I Love You," "Natural Born Pranksters," "37," and "Pete Smalls Is Dead." Her notable TV show appearances include "Quarterlife" and "The Millers," as well as voice-over roles in animated shows such as "The Cramp Twins," "Generation O!," "The Brothers Flub," and "Fat Dog Mendoza."
Beyond her on-screen accomplishments, Veronica has expanded her creative horizons by adding "Writer" and "Producer" to her repertoire. She has worked on her own YouTube show, "The Wise Wanda Show," as well as several other projects.
When not on set or behind the camera, Veronica enjoys indulging in her love for natural adrenaline, whether through roller coaster riding or race car driving. She is also an avid karaoke enthusiast and enjoys painting and sculpting in her free time.
Veronica is married to her husband of 38 years, Keith, and they have two children, Kimberly Anne and Joshua Maurice. Her family remains the center of her universe, and she cherishes the time spent with them.
