Lindsay grew up in Champaign and has been a chef in the Greek community since 2012—following in the footsteps of her father, who cooked on campus for 29 years. She earned a B.A. in Psychology from Eastern Illinois University (2008) and is currently pursuing her MBA online at the University of Illinois Springfield. Outside the kitchen, Lindsay enjoys fish aquariums, reading, and digital art, stays busy with her very active 11-year-old, and occasionally writes and edits for Alternatives Watch, a financial website.
