Welcome Administration Manager, Lindsey!

We are thrilled to announce the appointment of Lindsey Averkamp as our new Administration Manager.  Lindsey was born in Dallas, Texas and started dance at the age of three. She attended her first dance competition at the age of six and fell in love with being on stage, which led to 25+ hours per week of Jazz, Tap, Ballet, Hip Hop, and Contemporary dance classes. Several special judges’ awards, Top 10 placements, and many regional and national championship titles soon followed. She was also selected as a professional child actress for the Dallas Theater Center and was cast on a children’s television program.

Lindsey was a Junior Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader for many years and performed half-time shows with stars such as Jessica Simpson, Billy Gillman, Clint Black, Creed, and many more. She also was a high school cheerleader for four years, NCA All-Star, competed at NCA Nationals and served as Captain of the squad.

She attended the University of North Texas to study Biology Pre-Med and was selected to be a North Texas Dancer. Shortly into her college experience, she was offered an opportunity to become a Professional Ballroom Dancer and decided to take the chance. She worked for Arthur Murray International for 10 years where her accolades included being ranked as a Top Teacher nationally, and in 2014 was ranked 8th out of 300+ studios worldwide. She served as the Dance Director and later Manager for Arthur Murray in Plano TX, where she was responsible for training the staff and maintaining the dance standard of the school. Lindsey is also a professional competitor and has been a finalist in the Open Professional Rhythm and Smooth divisions and has won numerous awards in the professional show-dance competitions. She has made appearances on WFAA’s Good Morning Texas, the half-time show for the Dallas Mavericks, and has been in several shows with Theatre North and HIT.

Aside from her work in the dance industry, Lindsey has experience in commercial real estate, asset management, office management and administration, digital marketing, and in radio as a morning show host. The experience she brings from her eclectic background will serve her well in her role as HIT’s Administration Manager. Welcome aboard Lindsey!
