Kathy Drewien

Kathy Drewien takes you to the foundation of WordPress and helps you understand the basic building blocks for creating a strong website in her session on We Admit It! Getting Started with WordPress Can Be Tough.

A nationally recognized speaker with happy followers, Kathy has a way of explaining the technical mumbo jumbo of WordPress to novices so they feel confident with how to proceed. Her passion for the platform shines through in her speaking, teaching and coaching as she helps her clients through the sometimes difficult process of building their website. She recognizes the challenges or transitions newcomers face and knows how to guide them through content building without being overwhelmed.

The eagerness to share ideas and the generosity within the WordPress community is what Kathy loves most about the organization. She also says it is the best website designing platform “because it is robust enough to grow with you, yet simple enough to launch in 5 minutes”.

Users attending Kathy’s session can expect to come out of it with a stronger confidence in their abilities. “Attendees will know they are powerful, smart individuals who are capable of learning how to manage their website! They will understand the difference between using WordPress to publish and manage their content, and that tweaking themes is a different skill set. Using WordPress is easy. Getting the perfect design is a little more complex.”
