She was first kemonomimi in pre-Ayo Hoshi presidency selected for service as a senator starting in 2018. She was select to represent her hometown of Tvillingtopplandsby in the former upper-chambers of the Senate, in 2018 after being released from a re-education center. Ideologically, like most Kurintail Democratic Party as is a democratic socialist and a religious Akuan Progressive. She is the second prime minister of Nystatiszna post-reforms in 2018, and the first prime minister of the country to be voted in a nominal democratic method. She took charge after Ayo Hoshi announced his retirement from the PM office, and became the ambassador to Vistaraland. Servicing temporary prime minister, during the tenure later being elected into the office.
Victoria was born in Tvillingtopplandsby, her mother was a middle manager of concrete plant and her father being a craftsman. Her wealthy up-bring allowed her to attend the school alongside her siblings with her, though like all kemonomimi at the time she was barred from several classes and had to attend 'Kemonomimi enhanced' only education. During her early childhood education, she organized a student walkout at age 12 to protest against the banned on Kemonomimi children from attending Vaaran language course. While the student walkout failed and she was placed under house-arrest, the result was getting attention from the Wright Family and led into her being sponsored by Hannah Wright for further education. She went to East Fantøm University for political science, and lived at the Wright's manor. She met her former husband, Ny'Morrick at the university. During her time at university, she joined the Kurintail Democratic party and the Anti-Apartheid movement. Her husband killed himself in 2016, and Victoria was later arrested during the same year for illegally occupying the bordering crossing in Fantøm.
She served two years in prison, being pardon in 2018 by executive order from Ayo Hoshi, due to pressure both from the Wright Family and Hoshi himself wanting to pardon Victoria. After being pardon, she was assigned a seat in the former upper-chamber as a senator for Tvillingtopplandsby. Where she continued to serve as a Kurintail Democratic Party member, and kept pushing for anti-apartheid measures. During Ingrid the Reclaimer Enshrinement in 2018 she lobbied the government during the reforms to become further democratic rather having a constitutional monarchy. Preferring to keep the Enshrined Spirit, contained to dealing with religious matters of the country and keeping total control of legislative powers in the hands of the parliament. Though this never came to pass, nevertheless during her tenure as member of the upper-chamber of the new 'nobility' she pushed for further democratic reforms and further inclusion of Kemonomimi into government.
Ayo Hoshi retired from his office as prime minister to better serve Nystatiszna as a ambassador in Vistaraland after the Syrtænzna Dissolution War, and during the election Victoria voted into office as PM. She brought Nystatiszna into the Red Crown Economic Union, supported Nystatinne bid for hosting ICAF world cup and supports Ingrid's Five Year Plan. She had made a effort to attempt to reform the newly created Nystatinne Military to be less strenuous on the country's budget, and placed a bigger focus on maintaining a national guard rather than a full-time professional service though she is currently dealing with push-back against such measure.

She described herself as a "big proponent of career and technology schools" which she said were a better fit for the developing country compared to establishing more higher level of educational requirement careers.
