Lindsay has represented north Louisiana’s water interests across the state. She was named a governor appointee to the Louisiana Water Resources Commission in 2016 and maintains the appointment to this day. Lindsay also served as a member of the Louisiana Water Infrastructure Region 1 Steering Committee.
Lindsay resides in rural Dubach with her husband, Joe, and their three sons, Jayden (16), Dallas (10), and Rory (6). They are active and avid outdoors and sports enthusiasts. When football, cross country and baseball aren’t on the schedule, the family enjoys camping and kayaking together.
