Lindsey is a Tucson native who received both her undergraduate and Master’s degrees in accounting from the University of Arizona. She started her professional career over 10 years ago at a Big Four firm in Phoenix with an emphasis on provision and tax compliance for large corporations.

The firm’s name is a reminder to Lindsey to prioritize both her professional and personal life, and she hopes to help her clients be able to do the same by taking some of the accounting-related stresses off their plates. 

In her free time, she enjoys murder mystery documentaries, attending happy hour with her dog, Bram, in tow, and traveling. Lindsey is pictured here with the first unofficial mascot of the LIBA office, her “heart dog,” Grace.
