Meet CELT! Lindsay Bryde

Get to know CELT better! This month we find out more about Lindsay Bryde, our new Course Content Accessibility Specialist!

Lindsay BrydeWhat is your favorite part of your job?

Getting to work with a variety of educators and students who are passionate about their interests. It’s always fun to get a diverse group of people in a room and collaborate on a new challenge.

What did you do prior to working in CELT?

I was the Project Implementation Manager at SUNY Empire, focusing on the development of their course request/creation software for Brightspace, managing the implementation and training for their new web content analysis tool Silktide, and working with a team to establish and implement their Bias Incident Response protocol. Some of my previous credits at SUNY Empire also included Digital Accessibility Coordinator and Educational Technologist.

Coffee or tea?

While I gained an appreciation for coffee when working as a barista during college, I still prefer a good pot of loose-leaf tea.

Where would you like to visit (real or fictional)?

As a dedicated Princess Diaries fan (yes, I have pictures from my meetings with the series’s author, Meg Cabot), I’d want to go to the fictional country of Genovia. Between the books and the movies, it just made me want to uncover each new bend in the road there.

What was the last book you read? 

I just finished Out on a Limb by Hannah Bonam-Young. It’s a witty and quick-moving novel about two people with physical disabilities that learn how to overcome their mental barriers to find romance.
