Hey there,
I’m Victoria Baxter!
Most of my life I wondered, "What am I going to do with my life?"
You know, I changed my major six times in college- I tried everything from molecular biology, to hospitality management, and landed in elementary education. I even managed to score Rookie Teacher of the Year in my first year teaching, then gave that up to travel to 11 countries in 11 months on a mission trip. I've been a camp counselor, lifeguard, and even tried telemarketing for about a week. Not to mention the sweet gig at Universal Orlando as a "scareactor" in a haunted house. Needless to say, I've tried a lot of things.
The thing that remains true to this day: I want to honor Jesus with my life, be true to who I've been created to be, and I want to encourage and love people really well.
I've always wanted to be an actress. The only reason I did all those other things was because I was trying to a find a "Plan B" since I was told "Plan A" wouldn't work. I spent far too long believing that acting was just a hobby and nothing more. They say Creatives must be crazy in order to try to pursue their passions as a career. Well, they're not wrong, I just finally got around to trusting God's plans, and being courageous enough to take some really big steps.
I am an actress: a creative, a storyteller, an entertainer, a truth-teller.
I am created as a shining light, overflowing with joy. I hope the stories I tell make people laugh, cry, dream, and be changed. And I pray I inspire others to boldly live the life their called to. You got this.
