She is also the co-author of the true story inspirational books The Day I Met God and How to Talk About Jesus Without Freaking Out   along with dear friends Jim & Karen Covell.

Her Hollywood Career

While earning her bachelor's degree in broadcast journalism from California State University at Long Beach, Victorya entered the entertainment world at 18 through the live award show circuit with her first gig at the American Music Awards. Two years after college she was promoted to talent agent at just 23 and for more than a decade was a prominent Hollywood agent booking millions of dollars in business each year. She represented award winning producers, directors, writers, technical crew and actors for film and television. Victorya also taught three years at the esteemed Entertainment Studies extension program at UCLA on how to break into the entertainment business. She has spoken at many Media conferences across the country including ACT ONE events and Biola Media Conferences. Victorya hosts the series How to Be a Make it in Hollywood. She continues her involvement in entertainment industry as a media coach and career consultant to this day. For more information about her career coaching and audio programs visit her media website at www.makeitinmedia.com or www.hollywoodlife.org.  

The Coach Emerges—Dating, Media & Career Coach

Victorya loved guiding the careers of her Hollywood clients but she wanted to make more of an impact on their lives than merely finding their next short term TV or movie gig. So she achieved her Masters degree at Fuller Theological Seminary at night while continuing her agent career by day. Two years after graduating she married Will Rogers, giving her a great excuse to walk away from the security of her agent career and transition to her dream career of author, speaker and coach. Since that day she had spoken across the country, written four relationship and inspirational books, released her audio series, and continues to actively coach people on major areas of their life including dating, relationships and career guidance.

The Missionary

Keeping with her love for the entertainment industry and the need for Christians to support the industry, rather than run from it, Victorya officially became a missionary to Hollywood in 2004 (though her life has been lived as a missionary in this mission field since her first job there right after high school). Victorya’s Hollywood ministry, www.HollywoodLife.org, is affiliated with the Mission Service Corp of the North American Mission Board (www.namb.net) and seeks to educate Christians on how to get involved and effectively support the mainstream entertainment industry.

Though frequently found in her native California, Victorya and her husband Will, son Matthew, and daughter Katie, live in a suburb of Dallas.
