TORI SWIMLEY
ABOUT ME
I'm Tori, a storytelling enthusiast full of creativity and imagination on a quest to make each interactive and gaming experience magical. I graduated from Sonoma State University in 2019 with a BA in Communications and a Minor in Film Studies. I went back to school in 2023 to USC for my Masters of Science in Integrated Design, Business, and Technology which I will obtain May 2025.
After graduation, I was accepted for a Product Management Internship at Disney with the DisneyNOW mobile and web team. After a short two months, I was hired full time with the Games and Interactive team as a coordinator. While my time as a coordinator, I was eager to grow and learn more about being a producer while still fulfilling my coordinator duties.
With an endless appetite for learning, I was able to co-produce and produce many mobile and web games on DisneyNOW. Some of these games include Disney Junior Matching, Cart Blaster, Pupstruction Create-A-Coaster, Sulphur Springs- Race Against Time and Mystery at the Tremont, Descendants Wicked Wedding Planner, and even worked with Nat Geo Kids to produce Sharkfest Matching. I was also able to produce and program the emojis in the DisneyNOW app. I collaborated with outside vendors to create characters from the Disney Junior and Disney Channel universe.
Other aspects of my job include programming and managing our Content Management Systems where we house all our game builds and artwork. This includes programming the games to go live, programming artwork, organizing where game tiles are ordered in the app, and creating different filters like the Marvel and Nat Geo Kids filter you can see in the DisneyNOW app.
I believe in turning work into play and having my projects leave people saying, "Wow, that was awesome!" Every project deserves its own sparkle so allow me bring that creative energy and let's shine!
Tori
