About Tutor Tori
I grew up working in the family’s tech company from age 13, became a corporate biomedical engineer, and then left to start my own businesses, first as a professional actor and then as a book editor managing a team of 12 contract editors for 5 years.
In entertainment, I worked as a TV commercial actor for GoDaddy and Geico, a live broadcaster for T-Mobile, a live game show host for Home Depot, and a science show host and scriptwriter for the education company Pearson (now Savvas).
As a homemaker and mother of two (2.5 years old and 2.5 months old), I feel driven to support homemakers with funny, accessible, evidence-based household science.
I’m pursuing an Executive MBA at Cornell University to improve my administrative and financial skills, growth areas I identified in my previous businesses, to ensure my show has the reach and longevity for maximum benefit to the public and to all participants.
Contact me with advice, feedback, media contacts, or funding. After three scholarships so far, my tuition is $146,260 – direct contributions and recommendations on sources of funding are welcome. Also, I intend to pitch the show to production companies, networks, and platforms – all pitch tips and industry contacts are welcome.
