about DoctorGeek

Based in Claremont, California, DoctorGeek opened its doors in 2004. Managing director Susan Kullmann has extensive experience as a web developer, IT manager, trainer, and consultant. Her professional work meshes a continuing fascination with computer technology and a love of teaching learners of any age.

"Born and raised in New York. I've taught at all levels of education, either formally or informally.... Graduate work at Carnegie-Mellon University hooked me on computers; they've been a part of my teaching, research, and learning since then."

That's what she wrote in 1996 when she "designed" her first web page as a faculty member at Cal Poly Pomona. That first simple web page was an inspiration. She's developed many web site's since then, pretty much starting with one one she used to teach Cal Poly's first "totally online" US history course in 1997. Susan has trained hundreds of college professors how to design and maintain website's themselves.

Susan works with small and medium-sized businesses, individuals, and educational and non-profit organizations. Please review DoctorGeek's clients and testimonials.

where did the name DoctorGeek come from?

I earned a doctorate from Carnegie-Mellon University. After years of helping college professors become savvy, competent, and creative computer users — who can design web sites, deliver effective PowerPoint presentations, deal with email overload, etc. — I founded DoctorGeek.

A geek is a person who is interested in technology, especially computing and new media. The term geek usually makes non-geeks laugh. Laughing (chuckling, or at least smiling) about technology puts you on the road to the DoctorGeek's mission - to help people "lose the technology blues." ~SK
