"I was an early talker and started singing at age two. Between ages two and three, I was memorising entire CDs with good pitch. I was always singing," she said, according to Guiness World Records.

The vocal powerhouse made history in 2019 when she became the first contestant ever to get a Golden Buzzer from all four judges in the 16th season of America's Got Talent.

"I love the challenge of the difficult arrangements, the technique required to sing, all the runs, and the different languages all the arias are written in," she explained.

"I sing in the morning, in the shower, at dinner, at school, and even when I’m falling asleep. My family says I even sing in my sleep," she explained.

The wunderkind also meets with her coach at least twice a week with a new challenge of learning a new language or piece.
She also practices at home with her mom, setting aside at least 45 minutes every day to perfect her melodic voice.

No matter what I want to do next, she finds a way to help me to do it. She is always cheering me on," the vocal sensation added.

Victory is eyeing to break more records in future and be an inspiration to kids her age to pursue what they love.
"You can do it! Just do it one time and you’ll see it’s not so bad.
I tell myself to give it my all and have fun, and I do," she concluded.
