About Lindsey Hulstrom

Lindsey Hulstrom began Memories Preserved LLC to help people find and keep their voices through writing memoir. Drawing from a quieted spirit, Lindsey delights to touch others with heart-felt insights, a splash of humor and actualizing shared experiences. Infused with a kaleidoscopic background, she earned her BA in History from the University of Idaho while editing the award-winning yearbook, Gem of the Mountains. She understands the fragility of memories as she has worked with people and families who walk the road of dementia and Alzheimer's. She appreciates calling Wisconsin home with her husband and son, always with a really strong cup of coffee. And fresh fried cheese curds.
