If you're not looking for interview or Q&A candidates at the moment, Lisa is happy to contribute an original article.
Becker, no stranger to the unrequited high school crush, likens them to being as much a part of high school as football games, acne, proms and final exams. "I remember having such a fierce crush on a boy in high school, I would willingly sit with him in the bathroom at parties while he puked up wine coolers, just so I could spend time with him," she jokes.
Thanks to Becker’s real life dating past, as well as her experience writing articles about love and online dating, she can speak expertly about finding love in our modern-day world of love — both online and off. Reflecting on her own tech-based love story, she shares, “I first met my husband while wearing my pajamas." She met her husband 17 years ago when online dating was in its infancy. "I say, people today are 'married' to their cell phones and laptops, so why not use that technology to really get married," she explains of her affinity for online dating,

About Lisa
Lisa had endured her share of hilarious and heinous cyber dates, many of which inspired Click: An Online Love Story, Double Click and Right Click. The books, about a young woman's search for love online in Los Angeles, have been called, “a fast read that will keep you entertained,” “a fun, quick read for fans of Sex and the City,” and “hard to put down.” The first in the series was optioned for a major motion picture.
A former public relations professional, Lisa has worked with some of the biggest consumer companies in the world including McDonald’s, Ford, Sony and Gatorade. She’s also a former college professor, teaching public relations and communications classes at University of Southern California and Oglethorpe University.
As Lisa’s grandmother used to say, “for every chair, there’s a tush.” Lisa is now happily married to a wonderful man she met online and lives in Manhattan Beach with him and their two daughters. So, if it happened for her, there’s hope for anyone!
