About the store
I spent a decade teaching middle school math and science, and now I channel that experience into creating resources that make students THINK. My passion is building problem-solving skills through puzzles, logic challenges, and collaborative activities that get students talking, debating, and reasoning together. I believe every student deserves to feel the thrill of cracking a tough puzzle or solving a problem their classmates couldn't. That's why I create brain teasers, escape rooms, logic puzzles, and team challenges designed specifically for middle school — activities that are rigorous enough to build real mathematical thinking but fun enough that students beg to do them again. Every resource in my store has been designed with real classroom experience in mind. I know what it's like to need a no-prep warm-up for Monday morning, a team-building activity for the first week of school, or something to keep early finishers engaged. I've got you covered!

Teaching style
I'm all about hands-on, minds-on learning. My resources focus on critical thinking, collaboration, and productive struggle — the kind of activities where students are so engaged they don't realize how hard they're working. Think escape rooms, logic puzzles, crack-the-code challenges, and team problem-solving activities that turn math class into the highlight of the day.
Awards & shining teacher moments
My proudest moments as a teacher were watching students who said 'I'm not a math person' become the ones leading their team through a logic puzzle challenge. There's nothing like seeing a student light up when they crack a code or solve a brain teaser that stumped everyone else.
