“I have been impacted not only by the struggles that I faced, but by the courage that I witnessed so many women who chose to continue their fight for survival and who were willing to show courage to never give into fears or defeat, no matter the age.”

Chef Vicki Robinson grew up on Chicago’s South Side in Morgan Park. Vicki is passionate about working with youth and has participated in numerous peer mentoring programs.

In 2021 Vicki graduated from Washburne Culinary Institute Chicago as a professional chef and started her catering business, Queen Victoria's. During the pandemic, Queen Victoria’s Catering donated food to ministry programs and seniors in Vicki’s neighborhood. She would like others to know that she believes that her gifts are to be shared to enhance people’s lives as so many have done for her.
