A Career Born Out of Curiosity

Hi, I’m Lisa Kuhn, a web designer and developer with over 15 years of freelancing experience. I’ve helped roughly 150 clients create a web presence, maintain their website, fix what was broken on their site, and teach them how to update their website themselves.

I started by randomly taking an HTML coding class at a community college in the fall of 1998. Within a year, I found myself working in the marketing department of a hard drive company in the Santa Cruz Mountains. We’ll call it Silicon Valley adjacent. (The truth is, it was the majestic redwood trees that drew me to the area.)

At night, I completed a two-year technical certificate in Web and Interactive Media Design at UC Santa Cruz Silicon Valley Extension.

Now I look forward to helping you create your own home on the internet with my streamlined, no nonsense e-courses through my new venture LearnWPFast.com.

Feedback from my web design clients…

“I recently had the pleasure of working with Lisa, a phenomenal web developer, on the creation of my new website, and I am beyond impressed with the results. From start to finish, Lisa demonstrated unparalleled professionalism, technical expertise, and a commitment to delivering a top-notch product.

One aspect that particularly impressed me was Lisa’s commitment to client education. She went above and beyond by creating personalized video tutorials to guide me through the maintenance and management of the website. These tutorials were invaluable, empowering me to take charge of my site without feeling overwhelmed.”
