Don't Take It From Me...

"I connected with Victoria after interviewing for a role on her team. Even though I did not end up getting the job I interviewed for, Victoria volunteered to take me on as a mentee to help me find my way.

Prior to our mentorship, I had a scattered idea about where my career was headed in the advertising industry. Victoria helped organize my ideas into a singular goal ad helped me develop concrete steps to take. She found the balance of giving both clear direction and feedback while still allowing freedom in problem solving. She helped me develop an initial portfolio and continued to give me feedback and helped to refine my work while guiding me towards opportunities to pursue.

Early on in the industry, it's easy to feel like your career might be lacking direction. After working with Victoria, not only was I able to gain a better understanding of what I wanted, but I had an actionable development plan to pursue. 

Having a mentor to provide feedback and direction helped my confidence grow immensely. Anyone could benefit from this at ANY point in their career."

"I met Vic because I decided to switch careers - formerly a trained actor - and try copywriting. I applied for an internship at her agency, and she ended up training me, then hiring me full time.

By creating a deeply supportive learning environment and providing stellar examples through her own work and experience, she helped me recognize the skills that I already had and helped me learn how to enhance them and apply them to the job. For those skills I needed to develop from scratch, she gave me actionable examples, tools, and coaching. 

Vic is especially good at helping you develop organization and structural skills that I use every day on the job and in my day to day life. She helped me grow my presentation and client-conversation management skills to the point I can feel comfortable presenting to internal and external leaders. 

Before working with Vic, I knew next to nothing about the ins and outs of corporate life. Since working with her, I have become a confident, go-to team member contributing substantially to my team’s success and rising quickly through the ranks."

"I met Vic during an uncertain period in my career. I felt like I was lacking direction and mentorship. She took me on and mentored me.

Vic's leadership is incredibly comforting. She supports you and cheers you on while always providing a safety net. No question is a dumb one, and independence is encouraged.

Vic is a keen observer of how you function in your role and how you may be able to optimize your performance. 

Under Vic’s guidance, for the first time ever, I felt like I had tangible points of growth to focus on. She never failed to build me up for what I did well, while providing clear direction for how I could improve. I credit Vic with the growth that brought me into my own supervisor role, and the confidence I have to take it on. 

To anyone that has the opportunity to be mentored by Vic––not only will you have a stellar example of  leadership to follow, but you’ll witness what it means to develop the whole person, not just the skill. The chance to work within the dynamic of Vic’s leadership style is one that will change you for the better."
