Victoria returned to
Bermuda in 2003 with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Physical Geography from
the University of Liverpool. Since then, she has worked in several local and
international (re)insurance companies in their Claims, Broking and Underwriting
departments. In September 2024, Victoria was appointed the Executive Director

for mentoring, educating and guiding students into successful careers in the
(re)insurance market and ensuring a continued pipeline of talent for the
future. She has also worked in multiple hospitality roles with The

Victoria is passionate
about youth development and counts tens of young Bermudians as her mentees as
she helps guide them from the end of high school, through college or university
and into careers. She has been Chairman of both the Bermuda Chapter for the
Chartered Property Casualty Underwriters and the Bermuda Under 40s
(Re)insurance group. Victoria has also educated many through the Bermuda
Insurance Institute and is a Fall Semester Adjunct Lecturer at Bermuda College
teaching an insurance class. In 2015, Victoria won the "Young Industry
Leader of the Year" award from the Bermuda Insurance
Institute. Victoria’s grandparents inspired her family with their spirit
of service and some of her earliest memories involve delivering Meals on Wheels
with them across the island. Victoria has been married to Adrian since
2013 and they live in Smith’s. She previously lived on Burnt House Hill in
Warwick.
