Before stepping into motherhood, Victoria graced the Miss Universe Philippines stage twice—in 2021 and 2024. Though she did not capture the local crown, her dedication and perseverance resonated deeply with fans as she chased her dream of reaching the global Miss Universe stage.
She later chose to make the most of her dual citizenship by competing in Miss Universe New Zealand. Victoria ultimately won the crown, fulfilling her ultimate dream and representing New Zealand at the 73rd Miss Universe pageant in Mexico City, Mexico.
