Writer, Editor, Web Producer, and Social Media Specialist

Lindsay is an accessible technology consultant with particular interests in developing “hand-catching” tactile interfaces and in promoting hands-on science engagement. As a lifelong science enthusiast who has been totally blind since birth, she leverages her inherent nonvisual expertise to collaborate with ARISA Lab scientists, artists, and museum professionals to develop products designed to be experienced through touch and sound. Lindsay has spent several years as a cognitive neuroscience research coordinator, and continues to assist researchers with running studies of cognitive abilities in blind individuals such as braille reading, language, and mathematical proficiency.
