Meet Lindsay:
Hi, my name is Lindsay, and I am an artist, an educator, and a self-proclaimed neat freak. I enjoy spending time with my children, listening to music (The Doors and Radiohead are personal favorites), and cleaning. . ...yes really! My primary focus at Appleton is providing support to all members of the Appleton management team.
What I love most about working at Appleton is getting to be a part of an award winning company, that is a leader in its industry, and watching it develop from a small local business into a national franchise and a household name. My name is Lindsay -- I'm a wife, I'm a mother, and I'm an Appleton employee.
