Hi – I’m Lindsay Jones and I’m the Director of Service Operations at Swimlane! I currently live in the Greater Seattle area with my husband, Dallas, our two dogs, Baloo and Spur, and soon to be daughter, Kennedy Grey (anticipated to arrive April 2024). 

I grew up pretty much everywhere! My father was in the military for twenty years therefore I relocated every one to two years with my parents and two siblings. I wouldn’t trade my childhood for anything. I enjoyed moving around with my family and it allowed me the opportunity to explore cultures around the country and the world. However, I do claim Washington as my home state since my parents have lived here since my father retired in the early 2000s and I also attended the University of Washington, Go Dawgs! 

Before coming to Swimlane, I was in the United States Army as a Military Intelligence Officer for nine years. I loved the Army but it ultimately did not lend itself to my priorities; raising a family in a location that best suits our needs and wants.

스윔레인에서 근무하신 지 얼마나 되셨나요?

I have been with Swimlane for about 18 months – time flies! 

당신의 직무는 어떤 일을 포함하나요?

As the Director of Service Operations, I work with the ultimate dream team – we help deliver the product through implementations to our customers and end users. We help make their vision come to life. My focus areas are primarily project management, resource management, and operations process development. 

스윔레인에서 일하면서 가장 즐거운 점은 무엇인가요?

The people. Every day I am surrounded by bright, motivated, and kind people. It encourages me to put my best foot forward. I will be honest, I was initially nervous to be a part of a remote climate. I assumed it would be challenging to build a cohesive team, but I was proven wrong.

당신의 업무에서 가장 흥미로운 부분은 무엇인가요? 

The growth. I am a tangibles gal that appreciates independence and creativity. My position has allowed me to strategize with different people at all levels, innovate new processes, and execute a process I helped develop that improves not only our quality of life, but the customer experience. The growth, no matter how big or small, is inspiring and keeps me focused. 

일하지 않을 때는 무엇을 하는 것을 좋아하세요?

My husband and I love all things outdoors (very Pacific Northwest of us) – cycling, hiking, backpacking, skiing, camping, etc. We also love to travel, I think between the both of us we have visited almost all fifty states and fifty plus countries. I think one of my favorite trips was visiting Vietnam – the people are incredibly tenacious and kind, the culture rich, and the food delicious. I enjoyed the thrill of riding my scooter town to town and nearly escaping death. When we aren’t on the go, we spend the remainder of our time with our family (we have a lot of nieces and nephews).

혹시 열정을 가지고 참여하는 동아리, 자원봉사/인식 제고 단체, 또는 사회 운동 단체가 있나요?  

I wish I was a better person and could say yes, but I do have a long term goal of finding a Veteran focused volunteer group now that I have left the service. 

당신에 대해 사람들이 잘 모르는 재미있는 사실은 무엇인가요?

As a young child I bore an uncanny resemblance to Lord Farquaad from Shrek. Or if you are familiar, the Starburst Berries & Cream guy. Additional fun fact, if you’re on Slack at Swimlane and look up Emoji “Berries” my face pops up. You’re welcome. 

당신의 좌우명 또는 개인적인 신조:

Be Better, Do Better.

당신을 가장 잘 나타내는 세 단어는 무엇인가요?

Ambitious, Independent, Thoughtful.

스윔레인의 핵심 가치 중 어떤 것이 당신에게 가장 와닿나요?

항상 레벨업을 하세요.

당신은 우리 업계에 어떤 영향을 남기고 싶으신가요?

I think the intent is to always make something better than you found it, with a large focus on the people. As with any successful organization, people can be our greatest asset. If you build the right team, empower them, invest in them, that is where change, growth, and success happen.
