About[]

Lindsay was born on April 30, 1991, in Modesto, California. Her birth mother gave her up for adoption. She was deaf for the first six months of her life, so her adoptive parents were so surprised to hear her singing voice and were only too happy to support her wish of becoming a performer. She had performed in many amateur shows before participating in The Glee Project, one being Macbeth as seen on YouTube. Robert Ulrich, the casting director of Glee and The Glee Project, is also from Modesto, CA. Lindsay was the winner in the Valley's Got Talent singing competition, judged by Ulrich. She wrote him on Facebook to ask for tips, and he arranged an audition for The Glee Project. She auditioned in person and went through all stages and became one of the Top 12, going through all stages of the competition to become a runner-up.

After Glee and The Glee Project, she lived with fellow Glee Project contestant, Hannah. They lived together until September when Hannah returned to her hometown. Lindsay played Snow White in the “Snow White Christmas” with Neil Patrick Harris, another Glee guest star, playing the “Magic Mirror”, at the El Portal Theater from November 30 to December 18. She starred as the lead in the musical “The Last 5 Years”, starring alongside Alex Trevino, at the Brauntex Theatre, Texas from January 6–8.

She played 'Wendla' in the Los Angeles production of Spring Awakening in March 2012, the part with which Lea Michele originated on Broadway in 2007-2008.

Lindsay auditioning

In The Top 12, Lindsay is first introduced as a confident and talented girl.

She's the show." Lindsay explains that she feels that she has a large amount of her talent to give and that is all she has.

Meeting the other contenders

In Individuality, the final twelve are revealed and practice their first homework assignment, Signed, Sealed, Delivered (I'm Yours) with Matheus as the winner. When Firework is introduced as their first music video, Lindsay responds to it as being "the most amazing choice. It's a very belty, fist in the air kind of anthem for...people like me." She is given the lead lines for the Firework and does only one take in the recording studio, with Nikki saying "it was great. You're great.." She goes out and performs the song before making it onto the callback list.

We're Not Gonna Take It

Lindsay's week comes in Theatricality as she is given good feedback from musical theatre legend Idina Menzel before given the big note in the music video We're Not Gonna Take It. She is told by Nikki that ' she knows she'll nail it ' and when she does Nikki critiques her and says ' that was awesome! '. Then, Lindsay confidently tells the rest of the group about her feedback from the vocal coach. She then easily makes it onto the callback list.


In Vulnerability,

27

Lindsay admitting her vulnerability

Lindsay is terrified to admitting secrets to the remaining ten contestants. After the performance of Please Don't Leave Me, Dot-Marie (Coach Beiste) says that her performance felt like it was forced, with Emily saying that she "was delighted that Dot called [Lindsay] fake because that's exactly what she is." When the time comes for vulnerability admitting, Lindsay claims that she feels like a trophy because people say that they can't see past her physical features. Emily pulls a face, but that could have been faulty editing to make Lindsay seem snobby. She chooses the word Fake to write on her vulnerability board.

On Glee[]

Her character's name on Glee is Harmony. Harmony is a girl that wants to get into NYADA. She first appeared in the first episode of season 3, The Purple Piano Project. Kurt and Rachel meet Harmony and are very intimidated by her talent. Her second episode is the sectionals episode: Hold on to Sixteen. It is believed she will be returning in the future as her character said ..".next year will be a bloodbath...." This isn't confirmed, because at the time she was starring in a L.A. production of Spring Awakening.
