ABOUT VICTORIA DUPUY

Victoria has always had a passion for life, love, and learning.  In 2013, her life took an unexpected tragic turn when her husband Dean died suddenly of a heart attack at the age of 46.  Dean led a very active lifestyle and certainly did not fit the profile of someone who was at risk for a heart attack.  Upon Dean’s death, Victoria immersed herself in learning all she could about heart disease, early detection and who really is at risk. Through her research, she learned that there is a simple test called a Coronary Artery Calcium Scan (aka heart scan) that identifies heart disease at the earliest stages and can potentially prevent a heart attack in asymptomatic men and women.

Through sharing her newly-found knowledge and personal experience with friends, family and the community, Victoria quickly became aware that there were many other people with experiences just like hers. This awareness, combined with Victoria’s desire to prevent others from experiencing the terrible loss that she and her family went through, was her incentive to found No More Broken Hearts--because for Victoria, every single heart matters. 

Over the past 5 years, Victoria and her foundation have worked to raise awareness about the Coronary Artery Calcium Scan.  No More Broken Hearts has participated in numerous events and Victoria has been a guest speaker for local and national organizations as well as podcasts, news  and radio shows.

In 2019 Victoria’s dream of creating a mobile heart scan bus became a reality when No More Broken Hearts partnered with Life Saving Images. Together they have removed the barriers to receiving this important, life saving test.  This mobile bus is now bringing affordable and accessible heart scans to the Bay Area community.
