Lindsey Santiago
Development Associate
Lindsey Santiago is the connective tissue of ACP’s day-to-day operations. As Development Associate, she works across development, communications, and events, supporting the programs and people that keep ACP’s mission moving forward.
For Lindsey, this work is personal. As someone living with MS, she brings firsthand understanding of what is at stake to everything she does at ACP. She was a volunteer with the organization for two years before joining the staff, drawn by both her event planning background and a desire to contribute meaningfully to the MS research community. The landscape of MS has changed significantly over the years she has been involved, and that progress is part of what keeps her motivated.
Lindsey’s career path reflects a blend of creative and business instincts. She began in event planning before moving into digital advertising and marketing, building experience at Boston.com and Artfact (now Invaluable), among others. That combination of creative sensibility and operational know-how is evident in the range of work she takes on at ACP today.
Lindsey holds a degree from Babson College. Outside of work, she stays active, including playing adaptive tennis, and is an enthusiastic fan of both Disney and the Harry Potter universe. She lives in the Needham area with her husband and son, and their home is never short on Legos.
