DRV8353R: DRV8353RS Startup/SPI Issues

Part Number:DRV8353R

Hi,

I'm a high school student designing a motor controller based on the DRV8353RS. I mention this because I am probably missing something very simple, or have a fundamental misunderstanding about how something works. Upon assembling this board, and powering it on, there was no magic smoke released(very good). However, the driver will not enable, and refuses SPI communications. nFault is high, and the LED. Whenever I try to communicate by SPI, or at any time in general, the SPI output is high. I have scoped all channels, and have made sure everything was correct, and have tried all SPI modes. 

Any ideas? Unfortunately I will not be able to test anything for the coming days on the physical board but can answer any design questions. Attached is design documentation and schematics for the board.
