Victoria's journey to Sophie Grace
Victoria knew at 12-years-old that she wanted to be a lawyer. She was quite a study bug and always carried a book with her wherever she went. "I would spend hours upon hours reading (until well past my bedtime). I selected business and legal studies in high school and my passion for the law continued to grow. I particularly enjoyed mathematics and completed an accelerated mathematics extension course" Victoria explains. After high school, Victoria studied a Bachelor of Commerce with a degree in Bachelor of Laws (Honours) majoring in Accounting at Macquarie University. It was through the introduction of cryptocurrencies and blockchain that helped her realise her true passion was in the financial services industry. This led her to work at Sophie Grace. "The most enjoyable aspects of my role are the support and friendliness I receive from my colleagues and communicating with so many clients. Every day in the office is different and I am constantly learning and developing my knowledge and skills in relation to compliance and the law." Victoria explains.
Outside of the Office
Coming from a big Italian family, she spends most of her free time with family and friends celebrating and participating in multiple festivities. When she isn't with her family and friends, she can be found cuddling up with her Cavoodle dog Ruby whilst reading a good book or enjoying a tv show.
Best piece of advice
"The best piece of advice that I have ever received was from my father who told me to choose a career where I can wake up every day and be happy to go to work and enjoy what I do."
