About Lisa

I live in N. Michigan with my husband, who I sometimes like, and Thursday, our persnickety pug, who sometimes likes me. In addition to being the head Nerd Girl, I’m a librarian, run a Jane Austen empire, and, lastly, but not least, I’m also a writer.

I like heaving bosom books, trashy TV, organizing my t-shirts, and collecting Chucks. I am everywhere.

About Nerd Girl Industries

NGI has been around, in some form or another, for over two decades. I began teaching classes on various tech when I worked in Silicon Valley during the height of the tech boom and later expanded my specialities.

During graduate school, I began volunteering and later employed helping local businesses manage their online presence from keeping WordPress current, creating, scheduling, and posting content as well as keeping their audience engaged. 

Several of my clients suggested I should start doing this as a business and here we are!
