Lindsay Cooper

EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

Lindsay came to Story Collider in 2018 as our operations manager and now, as Executive Director, oversees Story Collider’s strategic direction, financial operations, fundraising efforts, and client engagement. She began her 20+ years in nonprofit work as a whale biologist where she followed endangered North Atlantic right whales up and down the U.S. east coast, then went on to administer a prestigious marine conservation fellowship program. Now she takes her three kids to visit the Smithsonian’s Sant Ocean Hall in DC, where they can view one of her photographs in the right whale exhibit. She will always have a deep passion for conservation science and mission-driven nonprofit work. Lindsay has learned so much from her time at Story Collider with her talented colleagues, and she thoroughly enjoys co-teaching workshops, practicing her own storytelling skills, and attending our live shows.

Besides hanging out with her kids, Lindsay takes time to volunteer for the local swim team and school PTAs. She loves coffee, pajamas, and any chance to sit and read a book by a lake.
