My name is Victoria Bert.
I have always been drawn to storytelling—movies, television, books, poetry, plays, musicals, advertising, shorts, games, how the story was told never mattered! During my career I found myself in many roles—either writing, crafting, developing, producing, basically telling many types of stories.
For three decades, I've created and developed successful shows, series, documentaries, and content that entertained, engaged, or resonate with diverse audiences.

Through it all the most important aspect of my work has always been the story. I've been fortunate enough work in many genres— film, television, reality, news, talk, short and long form digital media, theater, scripted and non-scripted. My dedication to my craft has lead to top roles in production, development and marketing at many distinguished companies.
Over the years, I’ve collaborated with some of the most inspiring and visionary creatives at reputable entertainment giants such as CBS Network, CBS Interactive, The Food Network, MSNBC, Spectrum TV, Comedy Central, Optomen Productions, BBC Productions, ABC Entertainment, RDF Television, Summerdale Productions, Al Roker Entertainment, Paramount Television, 20th Century Fox, and King World.

Currently, as the Chief Content Officer and Creative Director at Wocstar Media, I'm committed to amplifying diverse voices— men and women that are changing the narrative, the future of media, and of entertainment. We are on a mission to support artists who have inclusive stories with something powerful to say. I spearhead the strategic and creative direction of our content across multiple platforms. Our division works with directors, writers, authors, producers, and artists who are brave, bold, collaborative, and inclusive in their pursuits. We champion and support folks we call— Wocstars—creatives with big, bold ideas who won't let anyone stand in their way.
In my dual role as EVP of Marcom for Wocstar Capital, a B Corp certified venture capital firm, I lead our strategic marketing and communications, enhancing brand visibility and establishing the company as a thought leader in the entrepreneurial, investment, and startup sectors. I've successfully driven our brand narrative, securing prominent media placements in networks and publications like CNN, Fortune, and Forbes, and overseeing the development of content for podcasts and books to enhance brand recognition and social media engagement. My initiatives in monetizing Wocstar's assets through masterclasses and podcast sponsorships have opened new revenue streams, supporting sustained growth. I work closely with publicists and social media teams to ensure consistent, impactful brand messaging and lead marketing strategies across various business divisions, including Wocstar Academy and Ally Capital Collab, boosting program visibility and engagement. We strive to bring inclusive, universally enriching experiences, tech, media, and fresh perspectives from underrepresented communities to the global marketplace.
