“My message to all the world that are watching out there is no matter where you come from, no matter your past, you can always choose to turn it into your strengths. It will never define who you are. You’re just gonna keep fighting. I stand here today because I want change. I want to make history. And that’s what I doing tonight, so never give up. Always believe in your self and your dreams. And that is exactly what you’re we’re to do,” went Victoria’s winning answer.
