About this user
Jennifer Neeley Lindsay is a two-time Emmy nominee. She worked at ABC-TVs San Francisco affiliate for three years where she was senior producer and online journalist, leading to her graduate studies at Columbia Universitys Graduate School of Journalism, where she earned her masters degree.
Prior to being recruited by ABC, she was a pioneer in new media (or emerging media), translating television newscasts into an interactive format for the short-lived start up ReacTV, later called Zatso.
She was also a Peace Corps volunteer in Turkmenistan (check out the best online Chaihana), and later freelance news correspondent in the region; a reporter, producer and executive producer for the CBS affiliate in Fresno, California; an intern for CNNs San Francisco bureau; published articles and editorials in countless magazines and newspapers, and was a college radio personality in Berkeley and Davis, California as well as Lund, Sweden, where she was an exchange student.
An LBJ Congressional Intern and nationally-ranked debate and individual speech champion, she holds an MS from Columbia Universitys Graduate School of Journalism, an undergraduate degree with distinction from the English department at University of California at Berkeley and as well as a certificate in acting from the American Conservatory Theater (ACT) in San Francisco. She is also an accomplished singer, actor and performer.
She currently lives in in the San Francisco Bay area where she has co-founded ResumeMastery.com (fan us on Facebook), a resume-writing company which partners with small to mid-size recruiting firms and consults with individuals.
She recently left her role as Director of Digital Services at Eastwick Communications. There, she spearheaded all aspects of social media functions and programs.
Now through her own consultancy, Jennifer provides strategic counsel on social media to organizations of all kinds committed to helping her clients achieve maximum benefit from their social media investment. She is also a prominent speaker at conferences and events, as well as at organizational and educational gatherings, affirming her personal commitment to empower through knowledge. She displays this weekly through her well-regarded and trafficked podcast, The A-List.
Jennifers hobbies include acting, singing, dancing, surfing, beading & wirework, watching just about any sport with her lovely English writer/copyeditor/sports-journalist husband, and generally being a ham - which comes as no surprise to those who know her.

Acting, singing, dancing, studying pop culture (translation=reading the right blogs), beading/wirework, sculpting, surfing/the ocean and oscillating between being elusive and a general ham... kinda like the ebb-and-flow of the tides.
