Currently a graduate student at Harvard University Extension School, Lindsay Marissa studies Social Justice, Psychology, Philosophy and Ethics. Her biggest passion is helping create happiness among humanity, and she does this by traveling the world and activating peace. (Her passion for singing should also be noted!)

Lindsay grew up in Cleveland, Ohio and lived in Chicago, Orlando, Los Angeles and Nashville before moving to Honolulu, Hawai'i. She has huge aspirations and numerous dreams that she is determined to strive for until they become realities! Lindsay founded her organization, The Small World Project in 2013, and at the beginning of 2015, she embarked on an eleven-month journey to 32 countries across Oceana, Asia, Africa and South America. As she traveled around the world, she shared photos and stories of the people she met in an attempt to grow public awareness of diverse cultures and encourage acceptance toward perceived “others.”
