About Vic
Victor grew up on the Southside of Chicago and comes from a very humble background. Early in life he lived in a home, run by his teenage single Mom living on foodstamps and welfare and has gone on to live the American dream. He speaks to veterans about life after combat, at risk kids, and businesses, and is a vocal opponent to the entitlement state and all it's flaws having lived them first hand. He is a great conservative and motivational speaker with the resume to back it up. His story is one of hope and inspiration that he shares with others.
He is a retired 22 year military veteran of Bosnia, the first Gulf War, and OIF/OEF. Vic founded Hope4Heroes.org after finding there was a need for more support in "helping services" for wounded Heroes. Vic found a lack of peer-to-peer counseling and career services devoted to the most wounded our PTSD and TBI vets. He has grown Hope4heroes into a national organization while achieving a 90% program rate! Further, the organization is a leader in national legislation effecting veterans and families.
Prior to founding Hope4Heroes Vic served as the president of a health supplements chain growing the company from one location and $6000 a month to over $1.4 million dollars a year. He has three professional degrees, is currently working on a forth and his private pilot’s license. He works on national legislation and speaks to Congress about issues effecting veterans and families. Hope4heroes is one of the fastest growing veterans non-profit in the country and continues to shape the direction of benefits and aid for 27 million veterans coast to coast.
With a diverse public and private sector background to include C-level and senior manager level experience, first sergeant duty, top sales executive, business owner, motivational speaker, coach and advisor to wounded warriors and volunteerism for numerous organizations, Vic brings vision and experience.
