Tori S.
Project Management | Event Planning | Admin Support
I'm a versatile and solutions-driven project manager with over 7 years of experience leading cross-functional initiatives in higher education, event coordination, and operational transformation. My background spans CRM implementations, emergency management planning, organizational structure redesigns, and Agile methodologies. Currently serving as a Project Manager at Metropolitan State University, I lead strategic initiatives that enhance efficiency, improve user experience, and support institutional goals. I'm passionate about process improvement, collaborative leadership, and leveraging technology (including AI tools like ChatGPT) to solve complex problems and scale innovation. I hold a Certified ScrumMaster (CSM) certification and a postbaccalaureate certificate in Strategic Marketing from the University of Minnesota’s Carlson School of Management. I’m also an experienced educator, having taught undergraduate courses and facilitated workshops focused on leadership development, DEI, and harm prevention. Outside of work, I lead mentorship and engagement initiatives for Phi Sigma Sigma’s Minnesota Alumnae Chapter and Mentoring Program Committee and serve as a National Championships Event Coordinator for the U.S. Collegiate Ski and Snowboard Association. I’m motivated by impact, connection, and helping organizations and people grow into their full potential. Let’s build something great together.
