Raised in Vail, Colorado, Lindsey grew up in the beautiful, snowy Gore Range. When she was not snowboarding, she was hiking with her black lab or biking through the valley.
As Lindsey got older, she began to see the effects of rising temperatures on her mountain community from disappearing snowpack to raging wildfires. Knowing that she needed to leave the valley to help protect it, Lindsey went for American University in Washington, DC where she earned her Bachelors in Communications, Legal Studies, Economics, and Government with a minor in Environmental Science. Additionally, she achieved certificates as a Politics, Policy, and Law Scholar and in Advanced Leadership Training. Lindsey spent time with The Climate Reality Project working on the I AM PRO SNOW program and managed the 100% Committed campaign. Joining the advocacy team in 2018, Lindsey is excited to help continue to organize in mountain communities and outdoor industry on strong climate action.
When Lindsey is not plugged in working on a campaign, you will find her in the mountains snowboarding or hiking and camping with her dog. She will probably have a chia tea or kombucha in one hand and a burrito in the other.
