After 22 years in the classroom, I decided to retire and devote my time to creating engaging resources for teachers!  Starting in 2020, I now have over 700 products;  everything from Escape Rooms to Units of Study, Foldables, Projects, and more.   Engaging students is my specialty!

I recently moved to Colorado after many years in California. With 3 great kids, and a cat named Theodore, life is good!  I love to play golf, read historical fiction, play the piano, and spend time with family.
