“I am a first-generation overcomer!” Victoria boldly shared this proclamation on her first day of UpRise Training Camp back in 2021. A single mom, she came to UpRise while living in recovery at Renewal House. She continually worked hard to shatter barriers in her life and make her precious daughter proud. She earned her Medical Assistant Certification through UpRise, and for the last two years has worked in the Trauma Unit at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. Earlier this year, she moved to another location within the Vanderbilt Health Family as she serves patients in their Franklin location.
