VBD Magazine had an opportunity to speak with Oveda to gain insight into her inspiring journey, the secrets of her thriving business, and her vision for the future. In the face of adversity, may we all find the strength to rise, to persevere, and to become the architects of our own destinies.

FROM TRAUMA TO TRIUMPH

Oveda’s story begins in the inner-city projects, where she faced challenges that could have easily derailed her dreams. However, she refused to succumb to the circumstances surrounding her. Despite becoming a mother at a young age and lacking guidance, Oveda was determined to forge a better path for herself and her children.

“My parents wouldn’t allow me to go away for college because I had the babies to take care of,” Oveda recalls. “I was determined to make a better path and life for my small children.”

Though working two jobs while attending college as a teenage mother, Oveda’s resilience and drive propelled her forward. She found solace and opportunity in a preschool setting, where she not only worked but also enrolled her children. This decision was deeply rooted in her desire to protect them from the dangers she had faced in her own upbringing.

EMPOWERMENT THROUGH EDUCATION

Armed with determination and a thirst for knowledge, Oveda pursued a degree in Early Childhood Education, laying the foundation for her future endeavors. She didn’t stop there. Oveda obtained her insurance license and delved into the world of entrepreneurship, leveraging her investments to purchase the preschool where she once worked.
