Student Spotlight: Veronica Lada

Veronica Lada is a junior in Economics at Lehigh with a unique vision: to become an actuary who not only calculates risk but actively connects people and elevates underrepresented voices in the business world. Her deep curiosity recently led her to enroll in a learning sciences course—a field she finds incredibly applicable to everyday life. Recognizing that communication and teaching are vital daily skills, from personal storytelling to academic assignments, she wanted to immerse herself in educational research. By studying innovative practices in education, Veronica hopes to see a future where teaching is highly accommodating to diverse perspectives. She believes that learning possesses the profound potential to be a collaborative, deeply human experience rather than a purely transactional one.
