Shuffle dancer ✦ Content creator ✦ Podcast host ✦ Digital marketing expert

Hi there, I’m Tori!

I’m a 1/2 Japanese + 1/2 Italian millennial girl based out of sunny Santa Monica, CA. Most days you can find me hitting a good workout or yoga class followed by lots of shuffle dancing near the beach with friends creating content. 
I used to work in the corporate world, wearing pencil skirts everyday but I felt unfulfilled, overworked and lost in my cushy 9-5 — can you relate?
My soul was yearning for something MORE. But I didn’t quite know what that looked like. 
I followed my passions for wellness, movement, dance, and content creation  and over the years it lead me to become a full-time Content Creator and Social Media Entrepreneur.
I am mostly known for my free spirit and crazy obnoxious laugh…just kidding, but kinda serious! While both of those are true, most people know me for my love for shuffling, veganism, wellness, travel, the outdoors and personal growth.

I’ve been able to create my dream life through following my joy and I’m passionate about sharing my journey authentically and teaching others how to take action and follow their dreams.

But not without a lot of high highs, and even more low lows.
I've hit financial rock bottoms, woke up with panic attacks, and stayed up all night with anxiety wondering how I was going to pay rent. 
It's been anything but a walk in the park, but honestly I'm so grateful I took the leap and never gave up because I now get to live the life of my dream.

 I now want to pay it forward and teach you how to take inspired action to follow your dreams through monetizing social media the RIGHT WAY.

I'm here to inspire you to live your best life and be an example that it’s never too late to do what you love. 
I believe we all have a divine purpose on this earth, but so many of us let our fears, limiting beliefs, and negative self-talk keep us playing small. It is my mission to help you discover your true potential -- both in your body AND in your LIFE.

When I’m not busy creating content…

You can catch me dancing and cuddling with my dog Bon Bon, soaking up the sun in a bikini playing beach volleyball, roller blading on the boardwalk, traveling to a beautiful location, going on hikes or some outdoor adventure, shuffling at a Music Festival, or making the silliest dance videos with my boyfriend, adventure buddy and partner in crime - Garet. These days I'd rather cozy up on the couch with a fine glass of wine and good movie than go out to the club -- but a night out dancing always does my soul good from time to time, ya feel me? lol

If you’re dying to hear more, here are 5 THINGS you might not know about me:

  1. I’m the founder of a Professional Shuffle Team called Shuffolution. We performed on America’s Got Talent Season 16.

  2. I struggled with an eating disorder and prescription pill addiction for 6 years of my life. If I can overcome those illnesses and become happy and healthy, so can YOU.

  3. I met my boyfriend and love of my life, Garet, by walking up to the wrong volleyball courts at the beach. Later that year, we fell in love under the stars at Coachella and the rest is history!

  4. I’m a fur mama that rescued the sweetest poodle mix from Mexico named Bon Bon.

  5. My idea of a perfect vacation is either traveling to a beautiful island destination with lots of outdoor and water activities or dancing my face off at a music festival. There’s no middle ground with me! lol

Oh, yeah. And I’m a podcast host!
