About the store
Hi, I’m Rosh, a U.S. based history tutor, curriculum tinkerer, and unapologetic music-nerd.
For the past 8 years I’ve helped middle- and high-school students turn “all those dates” into stories they actually remember. One afternoon a ninth-grader told me, “I can’t keep the Gilded Age straight but I do remember every word of Hamilton.” A light bulb went on, a keyboard came out, and Curious Caps was born.
My mission is simple: help busy teachers spark “aha!” moments without spending Sunday night reinventing the wheel. If my resources save even 15 minutes off your prep and get one student to say “History’s kinda cool,” Curious Caps is doing its job.
Thanks for stopping by and let’s make history unforgettable together! 🎧📚

Additional biographical information
California native, lifelong guitarist, and museum wanderer. When I’m not writing history hooks, you’ll find me coaching a local quiz-bowl team, hiking Gold Rush trails, or sampling every coffee shop along Route 66. I’ve presented at two state social-studies conferences on using music for memory retention, and my “60-Second History” reels have passed 500 K views on TikTok. Creating resources that blend art, story, and solid scholarship is my happy place and I’m thrilled to share that joy with all of you.
