Her father, Eric, and two uncles were Division I baseball players. Her brother Corrie played collegiate golf at Rhodes College. Kuehn herself was a state champion in tennis before focusing on golf.
Her mother, Brenda, had an accomplished amateur career and twice claimed medalist honors in the U.S. Women's Mid-Amateur (1995 and 1996). She appeared in the U.S. Women's Amateur 16 times, in the U.S. Women's Open 9 times and was runner-up at the Women's Mid-Amateur in 1995. She secured the clinching point in the 1998 Curtis Cup.
