She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Communication Studies from Southwestern University where she received the 2017 Laura Kuykendall Communication Student of the Year Award. In 2017, Tori achieved a Master of Arts from Texas State University in the same field with a focus on Qualitative and Rhetorical research in Critical Media Studies with a focus on film. Tori also works in academic research currently studying presenteeism (working while sick) and intersectionality in media. She co-authored an article called, "#RepresentationMatters on TV: A critical textual analysis of intersectional representation at work on NBC's Superstore," in the communication journal Feminist Media Studies. Representation is an important part of film making for her as watching her own identities in media spurred her love for the art form and inspired her to pursue a career in media production.
