VICTORIA
Victoria has recently moved to Manhattan and given herself a year to pursue her dream: to write her first novel and to make it in the music industry. "I still can't believe that I am here. It is a whole new phase of my life. And if I can do it here, then I can make it anywhere…"
Victoria is 22-years-old, well spoken, and very well mannered -- as one would expect of someone with a private school education in the UK, Germany, and Switzerland.
She is a pretty girl but does not trade on her looks -- unlike her twin sister, Allie, who is an actress working in London, and her half sister Patricia (also 22), who is a model. She will groom herself and knows how to look good, as she has attended Arab state banquets and balls and partied with the other "It" girls on the London scene -- many of whom now reside in New York.
"People are always telling me that I could make more of myself, but, well, fashion -- I am just awful with it. I wish I was so sleek and fashionable but in my heart of hearts I hate shopping and find clothes totally boring."
There is perhaps another reason for her indifference to fashion; Victoria wants to be herself. In the past, she was the sensible one, attending Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., where she avidly studied Middle Eastern politics with a view to someday becoming a politician, though this is no longer her goal. Instead, she has turned her drive and ambition towards the creative talents that she had suppressed for years.
