Some journeys come full circle in the most unexpected ways.

One of our Creighton OTD alumni shared how a moment in class that once felt insignificant later became deeply meaningful — shaping both her professional path and personal mission. Her work today blends advocacy, education, storytelling, and a passion for inclusion in ways that are impacting families, professionals, and children across communities.

After 20 years as a military spouse and 13 moves, she’s returning to Omaha this summer — and we couldn’t be more excited to welcome her back home. 💙

Her story is a beautiful reminder that you never know which lessons will matter most — and that OT foundations have a way of showing up exactly when they’re needed.

Join us in celebrating Lindsey and the meaningful work she continues to do!
