MEET VICTORIA

Victoria Piekut’s entrepreneurial spirit has flourished as the President of her women’s fashion company, Wight Elephant Boutique. In 3 years, she has grown her online business, created in her dorm room, to multiple storefronts with 20 employees.

As a classically trained opera singer, Victoria has won national and international awards for her performances. She was honored at the Pennsylvania House of Representatives and named one of Pittsburgh’s 50 Finest for her charitable efforts and contributions.

Facing multiple health conditions in her youth (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome and Ehler’s Danlos Syndrome), Victoria developed courage, determination, resilience and the passion that she carries in all areas of her life.
