About Victoya Venise

I’m Victoya Venise — a designer, educator, and community builder with a passion for turning creativity into opportunities. For the past six years, I’ve worked as a graphic designer helping businesses and entrepreneurs bring their brands to life through websites, packaging, and visuals that tell a story. Alongside that, I’ve stepped into the tech world, studying software engineering at Columbia University, where I blend design with technology to create tools and programs that empower others.

My Story

My journey hasn’t always been easy. As a single mom rebuilding after financial setbacks, I know what it feels like to start from scratch and push forward with limited resources. Those experiences shaped me into who I am today — resilient, resourceful, and deeply committed to making sure others, especially young people, know that they can build something meaningful from where they are right now.

“Designing futures and building legacies — that’s my mission for my kids, my community, and every student, client, and partner I work with.”

Why Legacy STACKS

I created Legacy STACKS — a youth-focused program that teaches digital skills, design, entrepreneurship, and personal development. Legacy STACKS gives young people the confidence to create, the tools to monetize their ideas, and the foundation to leave behind a legacy they can be proud of. It’s more than a curriculum — it’s a movement rooted in creativity, culture, and community.

Today

Legacy STACKS is just one piece of what I do. I also help small businesses and nonprofits shine online with branding, marketing strategies, and design services. Whether it’s building a website, creating a flyer, or designing a full brand identity, I bring the same passion to helping others grow as I do to teaching. At the core of it all is my belief in designing futures and building legacies — for my kids, for my community, and for every student, client, and partner I have the privilege to work with.

My story is living proof: you don’t need permission to create your legacy — just the tools, guidance, and courage to start.
