Coach Tori is a passionate and driven volleyball coach who brings energy, competitiveness, and
a strong focus on player development to every team she leads. She began coaching at a young
age—leading Friday night youth leagues while still competing during her 14s and 15s seasons
at ACE Volleyball Club—where her passion for mentoring athletes first took off.
As a player, Tori competed for seven seasons at elite clubs, including ACE, NRG, and Texas
Image as a middle blocker and pin hitter. Her teams consistently finished in the top 20 at
national qualifiers and competed in the gold bracket at every NTR tournament. In 2018, she
double-qualified at MEQ and Lone Star Classic and helped lead her team to a 9th-place finish in
the USA Division at USAV GJNC.  At South Grand Prairie High School, she earned 3× Second
Team All-District honors and was a 2× 6A Area Finalist.

Tori continued her career at North Central Texas College before transferring to Brookhaven
College, where she was a three-year starter. She earned 2nd Team All-Conference and
All-Region 5 honors, was named DAC Player of the Week, and helped lead her team to multiple
Region 5 titles and a berth at the NJCAA Division II National Championship. She later returned
as an assistant coach, contributing to another championship season and a 3rd place finish at
NJCAA Nationals.

Now in her second season as a head coach at the club level, Tori brings experience from both
leading teams and assisting at the club level, including time with Dallas Arsenal and Texas
Image. She emphasizes discipline, hard work, and respect while creating a competitive, positive
environment where athletes can grow their skills and confidence.

Tori is passionate about developing well-rounded athletes and pushing players to reach their full
potential. Some of her favorite coaching moments include building relationships with her players
and their families, as well as reconnecting with her former coaches at tournaments.
