Hi! I’m Tori. A Dallas-based marketing director and graphic designer.

Thoughtful design. Intentional strategy. Exceptional execution.

As Marketing Director at D Magazine, I lead strategic marketing initiatives that drive revenue, elevate brand visibility, and strengthen audience engagement. I collaborate across departments to develop high-impact campaigns and partnerships that align creative execution with business goals, ensuring every initiative supports both brand equity and growth.
It all started with an internship in event planning. My Type A, organizer personality thrives on bringing structure to big ideas and ensuring every detail is thoughtfully executed. Today, I oversee more than 50 events annually at D Magazine, leading high-impact thought leadership programs from concept to execution. From curating speakers and shaping program themes to managing run of show and on-site experience, I build events that are as strategically sound as they are seamless.
The daughter of a graphic designer, I’ve always had an appreciation for thoughtful design. What started with freelance projects and being the go-to invitation creator in the friend group has evolved into producing strategic promotional assets at D Magazine—from sponsorship decks and event materials to detailed recaps and branded marketing pieces.
A masters degree, six years of teaching middle and high school, and three years of coaching cheerleading and soccer under my belt, I bring a wealth of experience on empathy, community, and human behavior.

About

Hey there! I’m a marketing leader with a passion for creativity and meaningful connection. My career has evolved across marketing, education, social media, event production, and design, giving me a well-rounded perspective on how to build ideas into impactful brands and experiences.

After growing into a marketing management role and now serving as Marketing Director at D Magazine, I lead revenue-driven strategy across media and events for all four publications. I collaborate cross-functionally to launch initiatives, elevate brand presence, and create campaigns that resonate with sophisticated audiences while delivering measurable results.

From overseeing 50 plus events each year to developing polished promotional materials and sponsorship decks, I thrive at the intersection of big-picture vision and detailed execution. I believe the strongest marketing balances creative instinct with strategic intention and always keeps growth at the forefront.
