He teaches Voice, Speech and Acting at the University of Mississippi, where he also serves as vocal coach for theatrical productions, faculty, and graduate students. His one-person show "A Mind Full of Dopamine", which examines gambling addiction through the lens of the neurotransmitter dopamine, has won multiple awards touring the Canadian Fringe Circuit, including "Best of Fest" at Calgary Fringe, the "Spirit of the Fringe Award" at Vancouver Fringe, and the "Steve Sauvé Spirit of the Fringe Award" at Ottawa Fringe. Also, Rory has presented A Mind Full of Dopamine as a featured presentation at the 30th National Conference on Problem Gambling in the USA and the Alberta Problem Gambling Symposium in Canada.
