About the store
Welcome to Prairie STEM Studio!
I'm a rural Nebraska educator with more than 20 years of experience working with students in elementary, middle school, and high school settings. I hold a Master of Science in Instructional Technology with a specialization in School Library Media and currently serve as an elementary librarian, middle school STEM teacher, technology integration leader, and educational coach.
Throughout my career, I have taught students from Kindergarten through 12th grade and have developed hands-on learning experiences that combine creativity, critical thinking, problem-solving, technology, and real-world application. Every resource in this store is designed with actual classroom use in mind and has been created to engage students while remaining practical and manageable for busy teachers.
At Prairie STEM Studio, you'll find STEM challenges, makerspace activities, coding lessons, engineering projects, technology integration resources, library lessons, and seasonal learning experiences that encourage students to think, design, build, and create.
As both a classroom educator and school librarian, I understand the importance of meaningful learning opportunities that are engaging, affordable, and easy to implement. My goal is to provide resources that inspire curiosity, creativity, and confidence while helping teachers save valuable planning time.
Thank you for visiting Prairie STEM Studio. I hope these resources bring excitement, innovation, and hands-on learning to your classroom.
Inspired by life, learning, and innovation in rural America.

Additional biographical information
Hello! I'm the creator behind Prairie STEM Studio.
I am a rural Nebraska educator, librarian, STEM teacher, and technology enthusiast with more than two decades of experience working with students from Kindergarten through high school. Throughout my career, I have served in a variety of educational roles including classroom teacher, school librarian, technology integration leader, STEM instructor, speech and drama coach, and educational mentor.
Living and working in a rural community has taught me the importance of creating learning experiences that are engaging, practical, and accessible for all students. I enjoy designing hands-on activities that encourage creativity, problem-solving, collaboration, and innovation while helping students develop confidence in their abilities.
When I'm not creating educational resources, I enjoy spending time with my family, life on the ranch, supporting student activities, and exploring new ways to bring technology and STEM learning into the classroom.
The resources in Prairie STEM Studio are inspired by real students, real classrooms, and a passion for helping young learners think, build, design, and create.
Thank you for stopping by, and I hope you find resources that make teaching a little easier and learning a lot more exciting.
