Designing complexity
into clarity.

What's the best way to recommend someone in a way that actually gets attention and sounds sincere? I have no idea, but I start with this question because that is how Lindsey starts her design conversations, with a thoughtful, "propelling" question. Lindsey is a reliable, holistic thinking senior product designer/owner. I say "owner" here because she is more than a product designer, she takes ownership of the project in the way a program manager would, engaging stakeholders, driving success, and shepherding the product rather than just creating a deliverable. Lindsey is always asking the right questions at the right time, instigating better collaboration and ultimately better experiences for not just customers but for the folks she works with.

Lindsey is an exceptionally talented designer whose skills extend far beyond UX and UI. Her critical thinking and problem-solving abilities have been invaluable in advancing complex projects that were previously stalled. Lindsey consistently takes actionable steps to overcome obstacles, significantly impacting the projects we've collaborated on. Any team would greatly benefit from her expertise and dedication.

Lindsey is just fantastic to work with. On every gaming project we tackled together, she brought a super player-first mindset and always came prepared with multiple smart, well thought out design options. She listens, iterates fast, and turns team and user feedback into solutions that feel effortless and fun. Anyone would be lucky to have her on their team.

Lindsey is a brilliant designer, learning professional and teammate. In her time with Accenture's LXD team, she worked on multiple projects and partnered with many different learning folks. She quickly established herself with stakeholders and built trusting relationships. She worked on a variety of projects showcasing her UI/UX, design thinking, learning architecture, instructional design and facilitation abilities. Within the LXD team, she was a vocal, supportive teammate with lots of creative, innovative ideas and was always game to jump in and help. A few project highlights: Lindsey worked on playable learning games for our massive New Joiner Experience project and for our massive Functions teams. These games were well-designed, creative and impactful. Lindsey also worked on the redesign of an internal website and created a much more usable, intuitive structure. I cannot recommend Lindsey strongly enough. She will do great things, and I plan to work with her again ASAP.

Lindsey and I worked together on a number of initiatives. These included significant contributions to the reinvention of our onboarding program, revisions to internal websites and documentation, research into accessibility needs in VR, and heuristics reviews for VR learning experiences. Not a few of the things we've worked on together are rare and emerging areas, and Lindsey's work in them has been characterized by diligence, focus, insight, creativity, and a wonderfully collaborative spirit. She's a truly multifaceted talent and a gift to her colleagues.

Lindsey was a student of mine in several courses in the Information, Design, and Strategy (IDS) program at Northwestern's School of Professional Studies. Her work in learning environment design, instructional design, and UX design was always exemplary and among the very best from students within our program. Lindsey is organized, creative, digitally agile, and detail-oriented. In addition, she is an accomplished collaborator, exhibiting empathy, and flexibility with other students whilst working on group projects.

Graduate studies at Northwestern University are rigorous and challenging. Lindsey met those challenges in every way and I have no hesitation in recommending her to an employer who is looking for an accomplished scholar and professional.

Lindsey worked for over a year on Accenture's Learning Experience Design (LXD) team, performing learner analysis, co-creating learner-centric, durable learning experiences, and consulting on evidence-based approaches, innovation, and design thinking. As the LXD Function Lead, I can say that Lindsey always had a positive, team-focused mindset, excellent time management skills, and a knack for keeping everyone calm and productive during intense crunch periods. I was lucky to have Lindsey as a designer. She consistently gave 100 percent effort to our team and will be greatly missed. Any team would be lucky to have Lindsey, and I couldn't recommend her more for any business looking for new talent.

Lindsey worked with our team at Northwestern University to build an on-demand digital e-learning course. I really enjoyed working with her on this project. This project was new ground for our team, as we had not built this type of course from scratch before, and Lindsey was there every step of the way on the journey. She brings very thoughtful design theory and application into her work and is able to play a dual role of both instructional designer and user/learning experience designer. She was able to pick up a new eLearning technology very quickly and deliver a really great product. I also experienced her ability to clearly communicate with senior stakeholders and clearly articulate the design process while gathering feedback. She brings a learning mindset and curiosity into what she does.
