Who is behind TheShirlShirl

Hi, I’m Shirl.

Educator • Creator • Changemaker

I believe in three simple things:

  • Making complex ideas simple. I have a PhD brain but I speak everyday language. Finance and health shouldn’t require a dictionary.
  • Exploring digital possibilities fearlessly. After 30 years of adapting to change, I’ve learned that the best tool is the one you actually use.
  • Protecting those who can’t speak for themselves. Animals deserve advocates. A portion of this site’s proceeds goes toward animal shelters and rescue efforts.

Why I Built This Site

I am really into fitness and finance. I constantly try to find ways, easier ways for others to understand the nuonunces of these 2 fields. I have 2 YouTube Channels that talk about these 2 areas. And now, I would like to continue this journey by finding useful tools to help in these understanding and knowlege of the fields.

I built some tools to share here. Simple. Useful.

Whether you’re trying to pay off a credit card, understand your BMI, or figure out a mortgage payment, these tools give you clear answers without the fluff. No finance degree required.

The Mission: Tools That Give Back

Every calculator you use here helps support animal welfare. My long-term goal is to use the revenue from this site to directly fund shelters and rescue operations. You’re not just crunching numbers—you’re helping animals in need.

📬 Want to follow along? I’m building this site in public. Subscribe below to get updates when new tools launch—and see exactly how the animal shelter fund is growing.
