Hi, I’m Shep

I build practical tools for learning, teaching, and game nights—focused on clean UX, real-time workflows, and data that actually helps.

About

Teacher → builder. Practical software for real classrooms and real people.

Who I am

12+ years teaching

I’m Shep Sheperdigian. I taught high school science for 12+ years—mostly physics—in an urban school with a diverse student population. Teaching a “hard subject” to real humans taught me how to break down complexity, build clear storylines, and design systems that help people succeed.

What I build

Clean UX • Fast workflows

I build small, focused tools that reduce friction: live formative checks, quick content creation, and simple dashboards that make student thinking visible without creating more work. I care about speed, clarity, and shipping useful features.

What I’m aiming for

EdTech • Product-minded

I want to work with a team building education software that’s grounded in real classroom constraints and learning best practices—tools that help both students and teachers.
