Victoria is a fully plant based Olympic Taekwondo athlete and represented the beautiful country of Puerto Rico at the 2021 Tokyo Olympic Games.
She has been competing in the sport of Taekwondo for 21 years and is her passion and life.
Victria has total of 17 scars on her knees because of a total of 6 knee surgeries. ACL reconstruction in 2010, meniscus and ACL reconstruction in 2012, two reconstruction ACL surgeries in 2013, a 15% meniscectomy of the meniscus in 2018 and a major meniscectomy of the meniscus in 2019. After her 6th knee surgery in 2019 ahe thought it to be impossible to qualify for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games after hearing the shocking news that she had about 20% of her meniscus left over from surgery. However, through her faith in Jesus Christ she felt the need to continue and finish the race on to becoming an Olympian.
Despite all those who doubted her and advised her to give it up, after a hard rehab process, Victoria returned to the sport. After falling short for the Rio 2016 Olympics, she preserved through all my set backs and qualified for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games on March 12, 2020.
Follow Victoria on her journey to the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games and beyond in this interview.
