Victor’s Story

Find Your Gift, Use it for Good

"Everyone has a gift. I was fortunate to find mine and it changed my life. Now, I want to help bring out other people's gifts."

I've been a professional barber for eleven years. My mom signed me up for barbering college even though I disagreed. She made a massive impact on my career because she's the one who got me started. I knew I was making a difference in my career when the people I grew up with started looking up to me. They would ask me how I was able to overcome struggles, and if I had any advice on how they could do it too. It made me feel good. My inspiration comes from the people I have been able to help.
