Lior's education stems with an undergraduate degree specialized in psychology. He then pursued his graduate studies with a sports administration diploma from the John Molson School of Business. His thirst for knowledge led him to apply and successfully complete a Masters in Physical Education with an emphasis in sports psychology. This degree trains students to build sports psychology programs with elite and high performance athletes so that they may create, recreate and maintain flow in their sport.

During this period, he has taught physical education, math, English, computers french, and science. He was also vice principal and in charge of discipline in a prestigious private high school. Lior has gained valuable experience working within the elementary school system as well. Lior's passion lies in growing the Tennis and Sports Psychology Academy (TSPA) - a day camp for kids 5 - 15 years old who practice the physical skills of tennis on the court as well the mental skills off the court. Finally, Lior also officiates as an ice-hockey referee within the Concordia University department of recreation and athletics.

He lived in Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic and Paradise Island in the Bahamas. Other contracts included working for Royal Caribbean International aboard seven different world class cruise ships as a junior cruise animator. This gave Lior the opportunity to travel aboard one of the world's largest cruise ships.
