Content strategist who specializes in discovery work and systems thinking

With 10+ years leading content strategy for 25+ large-scale digital projects, I’ve helped many teams move from user research to systems they can confidently build and maintain.

When we work together, you'll get discovery research that uncovers what your audiences actually need, content frameworks your team can execute, and technical specifications your developers will thank you for.

The result: content strategy that makes it from planning to production.

Lindsey has the unique ability to capture any organization’s true character and present it with compelling and impactful content. She conducts her work with a big picture, strategic mindset - all the while crafting every facet with care.

Complex content problems need a strategist who’s seen it all before.

  • “Our stakeholders can’t agree on what belongs on the website.”
    My discovery process uncovers what actually matters to your audiences and creates alignment around clear goals.

  • “We’re redesigning our site, but don’t know what to do with our content.”
    I conduct content audits and gap analyses that show you what to keep, cut, or create.

  • “Nobody can find anything on our website.”
    I design information architecture and navigation systems that make sense to your users, not your internal team.

  • “Our website needs to speak to multiple audiences.”
    I create content components and systems that work for multiple user groups simultaneously without compromising anyone's experience.

  • “We worked with a strategist before, and the PDFs are somewhere around here…”
    I provide implementation support to bridge the gap between planning and production.
