The first thing I want to do is tell you about Lindsey Megan Charles. Lindsey is a Senior Administrative Assistant in the Biomechatronics Group at the Media Lab. She keeps a team running that has 30 people from three different academic programs — and has done so for nine years. Her colleagues say that Lindsey is a trusted and expert colleague and problem-solver. She always ensures that all voices are heard and that students feel supported.

One of her coworkers shared this: “Lindsey has shown immense leadership, humility, kindness, sacrifice, and integrity. As we achieve our personal and professional milestones, she is an integral contributor to our progress.”
