Hi, I’m Lindsey. I’m a comms leader who specializes in making creative content across all mediums for causes people care about, and I’d love to team up with you.
I guess you could think of me like an issue-driven one-woman advertising agency. But unlike an ad agency, I’m on your team; immersed in your cause and working arm-in-arm alongside your issue experts.
I know this work because I spent 18 years working on major brands at large ad agencies spanning from Hollywood to Madison Avenue to our nation’s capital.
I love this work because I’ve spent the last decade working at the grassroots level or embedded within causes that matter.
A bit about me
| WHO – A seasoned creative professional who works well solo, as a teammate, or leading others toward our shared goals. |
| WHAT – Comms strategy / content generation including ideation, production, roll-out, metrics / rapid response / buzz generation / asset gathering and shoots / brokering co-branded, paid, and donated placements / story collection and innovative storytelling / vendor and contractor management / external partner relationships / executive and fundraising support / info synthesis and messaging / timelines and budgets / team building / multitasking / good vibes. |
| WHEN – I’ve been working late on stuff I care about since 1999. |
| WHERE – I’m based in beautiful Portland, Oregon and I’ve been working remotely across all four time zones since 2020. |
| WHY – I care. A lot. And the only thing that makes me happier than finding a solution to a problem is the look on people’s faces when the solution is quicker, cheaper, easier, or more innovative than they had planned for. |
| HOW – This work is second nature to me, and I can’t imagine doing anything else with my life. I’m passionate about creating content – both big and small – that helps change hearts and minds for good. I offer a wide range of experiences as well as access to a deep bench of ad industry talent. Working with me means you won’t have deal with the overhead or headaches caused by expensive external firms. WHAT’S NEXT – Let’s connect asap and discuss how I can be a force multiplier alongside the great work you’re already doing. |
A bit about you
Chances are, I care about the same things you care about.
If your work is helping people, places, or things be better or cleaner or more beautiful or more equitable… I have a feeling we’ll get along great.

“Lindsey and I worked together for just a short time, but she deeply impressed and inspired me. She’s the creative that’s going to come up with the great idea no one else could think of.

She is incredibly passionate about everything that she does and comes up with brilliant ideas, all while being responsible.”
