About Lindsay

Lindsay is the director of digital marketing at the Chautauqua Institution. She works within the marketing team to build a strong digital marketing strategy that is aligned with the Institution’s overall goals and strategic plan. She helps make the many exciting programs and activities in season, as well as year-around, accessible to a larger audience so more people can enjoy experiencing Chautauqua.

Lindsay is originally from Youngstown, Ohio and worked for iHeartMedia for five years, working with the radio sales staff, digital sales and became a morning show on-air personality. She then moved to Erie, Pennsylvania in 2020 to begin working for a financial firm creating their online digital presence and managing their marketing CRM.
