Since graduating from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee School of Education in 2011 with a master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction and mathematics concentration, Steffes has been creating math-related musical parodies that supplement his classroom instruction and lectures.

His most recent parody, "Area Hearts," was made into a music video by the UWM School of Education. The song teaches students that the area means "space that fills up something." Steffes sings out the steps for determining the area of a rectangle and other shapes: by multiplying length times the width. Lyrics were written to accompany the background track of the popular hit, "Stereo Hearts," by Gym Class Heroes.
