In 1992 her family encouraged her to enter Talent America Contest; which was held in Portland, Maine. She received two awards Most Stage Presence and Best Personality.

She formed a Trio with her son Jimmy and her mother Laura and they called themselves Vicki Lee & Company. Vicki will always cherish those two years of performing with them. Meanwhile she had quite a few fans who had discovered that she was a powerful performer with a Golden Voice. In 1998 had surgery on her vocal cords and noggles removed. Took a year to recover and also gathered her thoughts. In 1999 formed a Duet Act Team with Stevie Cee called Pop ‘N’ Country. They performed at different functions, parties, campgrounds and fairs.

In 2000 Vicki and her mother who has a gift for writing decided to put her mother Laura’s talent to music. Laura wrote the songs and Vicki came up with the melody. This was a very close and affectionate time for both mother and daughter. They decided to release Vicki’s first CD naming it Touch Of Life. The very first song on the album “Let Me Not Weep” is dedicated to
Vicki’s father Charles E. Smith who passed away Feb. of 1995 of Lung Cancer.
