About the store
I’ve been in education for over 30 years, and I’ve worn a lot of hats along the way! I started in Preschool, then taught Kindergarten, First Grade, and Third Grade, which gave me a real appreciation for how kids learn and grow in those early years. Later, I spent 8 years as a Technology Facilitator, helping teachers figure out how to actually use tech in their classrooms without it feeling overwhelming. These days, I work with teachers across the district to integrate technology in practical, meaningful, and (most importantly) doable ways. I love creating resources that make teaching a little easier and learning a lot more engaging—especially when it comes to STEM and digital tools. Everything here has been tested in real classrooms, by real teachers, who don’t have time for complicated directions or extra fluff!

Teaching style

My classroom is built around small groups, collaboration, and hands-on learning. I see myself as a facilitator, guiding students as they actively engage, create, and problem-solve. I believe students learn best by doing—especially through STEM and meaningful tech integration. That philosophy drives everything I create, with resources designed to be interactive, student-centered, and easy to use in real classrooms.
