MEET THE TEAM
Julie is the mastermind behind Escape From St. Louis. She wears every hat in the business from designing and creating puzzles to building the mysteries that keep players guessing. Her brain is basically an escape room factory—with a touch of mischief. When she’s not building new challenges, she’s operating as one of our friendly Game Masters and our ambassador to the Maplewood community.
Joe is the mastermind of all things construction at Escape From St. Louis. He’s the guy behind the walls—literally. From secret compartments to sliding bookcases, Joe builds it all with style and precision. He sources every material and always finds new, clever ways to bring our rooms to life. If you've ever said “Whoa, how did they build that?”—the answer is probably Joe. Basically, he turns wild ideas into real, immersive adventures.
Lisa is Head Game Master at Escape From St. Louis. She knows every secret, twist, and hidden door in our escape rooms. If something moves, locks, clicks, or opens—Lisa knowns its secrets. She’s the go-to guru for all things puzzling and mysterious. From managing the day-to-day to making sure every game runs like clockwork, Lisa keeps the adventure alive. Basically, if Escape From St. Louis were a puzzle, Lisa would be the key.
Lindsay is the creative force behind the look and vibe of Escape From St. Louis. She leads design, video, and marketing with a flair for fun. From eye-catching posters to clever campaigns, she finds awesome ways to show off our rooms; especially ones that sneak a pet or two into the spotlight. (Yes, that dog in the poster? Totally intentional.) If it’s quirky, creative, and makes you smile, Lindsay probably had a hand in it.
Joel is the tech wizard behind the scenes at Escape From St. Louis. If it blinks, beeps, locks, or launches—Joel built it. He codes, wires, designs, and brings all the tech magic to life in every room. His brain runs on logic puzzles and caffeine. From hidden sensors to clever contraptions, Joel makes sure the rooms not only work, but WOW. He's the reason your escape feels like
movie-level magic.
Russell is a writer, and film star at Escape From St. Louis. If you’ve watched one of our room videos, chances are you’ve seen him in action. He brings the stories to life with his scripts, characters, and on-screen charm. Whether he’s a villain, hero, or something in between—he’s probably having way too much fun. When he's not writing twists and turns, he's starring in them. Russell helps make our rooms unforgettable before you even step inside. He's also one of our master Gamemasters!
