After graduating from the Conservatory Program at Second City Hollywood many years ago, Founder Lindsay Audette, recognized that the skills she had developed were far too valuable to remain confined to the stage. She had seen a growing demand for the powerful life tools that improvisation provides. Combining her passion for the arts with a deep desire to help others, she created a company dedicated to sharing the transformative power of creative expression with the world.

She is originally from Chicago where she graduated from Columbia College Chicago with a degree in Theater Performance. She is a graduate of the Conservatory Program at Second City Hollywood and has performed in many improv and sketch groups around Los Angeles. She spent time working for a non-profit prior to co-founding AdLib LA in 2016. In 2024, she founded The AdLib Company, combining her years of experience in the mental health and substance use disorder fields with her love of the arts. She hopes to continue to expand The AdLib Company and share the healing power of creativity with the whole world.
