About

Hi, I’m Raul Esparza!

I’m a content creator and educator with 15+ years of experience in instructional design and technology. I specialize in combining marketing, video production, eLearning, and social media strategy to create engaging, practical content for both educators and learners. 

I run the YouTube channels EngagingTechShop, where I will upload lessons on how to use tools like Adobe Photoshop, Microsoft Office, and other essential tech skills. I also lead Halloweenallyear365, a creative universe filled with spooky stories, escape rooms, dark academia music, and year-round Halloween-themed experiences you can use in your classrooms via Gamifywithstories.com.

I also consult as an instructional designer, developing eLearning and video-based training for clients—often with a creepy twist. At the end of the day, I love blending creativity, tech, and education to inspire curiosity, spark imagination, and make learning unforgettable.
