Prior to joining the NFL, Victoria was a member of the San Diego State Athletics media relations staff where she enjoyed an unrivaled collegiate experience during her five year-stint in America’s Finest City. In her multi-faceted role, Victoria served as the assistant media director for the 2014 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament, which was held at SDSU’s on-campus arena, and was the primary communications contact for several of the Aztecs’ varsity programs, helping to enhance the student-athlete experience.

Victoria holds a bachelor’s degree in media studies from San Diego State University and is an avid follower of her alma mater’s teams, which included attending the 2023 Aztec men’s basketball run in the NCAA Tournament where Victoria witnessed the Sweet 16, Elite Eight, Final Four and National Championship games. 

Outside of work, you can find Victoria either eating or traveling. So far, her favorite destinations include Trinidad, Cuba, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and Champagne, France. Despite disliking the term “foodie,” Victoria can be considered one as she loves to try new restaurants and food vendors.
