• Lindsay joined her first choir at 9 years and has been performing ever since! Lindsay has performed all over the world, from the Sydney Opera House to Manhattan’s Rockwood Music Hall. Altering an audience through live performance is fantastic reminder of the purpose of being alive.

  • Lindsay's work draws inspiration from her favorite composers: Sara Bareilles, Dave Malloy, Chopin, Schubert, Jason Robert Brown. Creating harmonies, altering the perception of sound and playing with time and space appear in her original pieces.

  • MDing is one of Lindsay’s favorite activities! She has MD’d hundreds of musical productions in NYC and San Francisco. Her style is professional, clear, and maintains high expectations while adding in some humor throughout the experience.

  • Inspiring others to find their own intrinsic love of music is one of Lindsay’s favorite parts of teaching. No two people or students are alike; Lindsay changes her teaching pedagogy to reflect her students. This creates holistic, student-centric, well-rounded musicians, who are able to read music, chord charts, and use new technology to enhance learning.

 

As a music director, vocalist, pianist, composer, and educator, Lindsay has dedicated her life to bringing communities together through music. Her recent shows include Into the Woods, High School Musical, Head Over Heels, Beauty and the Beast, Pippin, Spring Awakening, RENT, Guys and Dolls, Footloose and Mamma Mia. Additionally, she is a singer-songwriter and performs regularly in the band “The Corduroy Suit.” Lindsay holds a Masters in Music & Music Education from Columbia University and a Bachelors degree from University of California, Santa Cruz.
