Victoria Moran is a vegan of over three decades and was voted “Peta’s Sexiest Vegan Over 50” in 2016.

The Academy’s 500+ alumni hail from 30 countries and are engaged in vegan enterprises ranging from counseling to cooking to cowboy boots.
Moran has hosted the award-winning Main Street Vegan, "the spiritual and spirited vegan podcast" -- as a weekly live radio show and then podcast-on-all-platforms -- for the past nine years. She is also lead producer of A Prayer for Compassion, the 2019 documentary from Student Academy Award winner, Thomas Jackson, that explores the intersection of food choices and spirituality.
