Originally from London, Victoria is a highly unique film & TV composer, Multi-Instrumentalist and Music Producer who’s carved out a fresh and cutting-edge experimental style across her wide range of work.

In 2011, she won Best Composer at Underwire Film Festival for Louise Marie Cooke's short film “First Bite”. This led her to the scoring of her first feature film “The Liability”, directed by Craig Viveiros and starring Tim Roth, Peter Mullan, Jack O’Connell and Talulah Riley among others.  

In 2014, she was awarded an emerging excellence fund by Help Musicians UK, which enabled her to work with the Bergersen String Quartet to score the short film “Siren". She was invited to Berlinale Talents (part of the Berlin Film Festival) as a 2015 sound studio participant, which led her to compose for documentaries such as "Hong Kong Roof Top Rebels" for Al Jazeera Media Network in 2016.   

In 2017, she scored the short film "Missed Conceptions", which was screened at BFI Flare 2018, the biggest LGBTQ+ Film Festival in Europe. One of her latest works is the soundtrack to “I Choose” a fiction drama directed by Tina Pasotra, which was recently nominated for best short film at BAFTA Cymru awards 2021.  

Her extensive professional experience led to her acceptance on the University of Edinburgh’s MSc in Composition for Screen 2017-2019 which she was awarded Master of Science With Merit in October 2019. Victoria was also accepted on to BFI Network x BAFTA Crew 2021/2022 and now BAFTA Connect 2023/2024.
