Digital Transformation

Lindsay champions an integrated digital approach that connects people, data, and expertise — enabling teams to collaborate more effectively and anticipate client needs with greater precision. By leveraging client intelligence and automation, Lindsay reduces friction, surfaces opportunity, and ensures technology investments translate directly into better decisions, stronger partnerships, and measurable business impact.

The Client Experience

Lindsay believes exceptional client experience starts with understanding what truly drives a client's business. She develops and supports programs to help Faegre Drinker partners connect with one another to strengthen internal relationships and understand each other's practices, empowering them to bring the best insights to the firm's clients. Lindsay also emphasizes the importance of proactive, thoughtful touchpoints with clients to help Faegre Drinker stay top of mind and power client growth. Her work helps create an ecosystem of client relationships built on trust, value, and predictability — where Faegre Drinker acts not only as legal counsel, but as a long-term partner invested in our clients' success.

Brand Credibility

Lindsay has helped shape brand and communications strategy through two of the largest law firm combinations of the last decade — the 2012 combination that formed Faegre Baker Daniels and the 2020 combination that established Faegre Drinker. She focuses on building brand awareness and market credibility through consistency, strategic visibility and authentic storytelling. Her work helps ensure every interaction with the Faegre Drinker brand reinforces trust, reflects the firm's standards, and creates a clear, high-quality experience for clients, prospects, and colleagues alike.

Personal Interests

Lindsay enjoys reading, tolerates running, and is always up for a trip to the beach, a great glass of wine, or an episode of The Great British Baking Show. She also supports STEM education in her local community through the Ann K. Gotwald Fund for STEM Education, established in honor of her daughter, Annie, whose legacy continues to inspire opportunities for students.
