Lindsay Ackerman
Executive Assistant to Harmony Dust / Program Manager
Bio: Lindsay was born into a life of full time Christian Ministry, working along side her family, where her Dad served as Senior Pastor of their home Church in Chicago.

Lindsay met her husband at Walt Disney World, and together they live a life of adventurous Faith and Perserverance with a passion to help others find God’s Best for their lives. This Faith brought Lindsay to Treasures, where she now applies her Executive skills to fully supporting Harmony Dust, and the Treasures leadership team.
