Lindsey Rasmussen is a young professional in Denver who joined Hilltop as an Associate in 2021. Her experience spans from working in former State Representative and current Jefferson County Commissioner Tracy Kraft-Tharp’s legislative office to managing Kraft-Tharp’s competitive Jefferson County Commissioner campaign in 2020 that ended in an eight-point victory over a powerful incumbent. As one of the largest counties in the state, Jefferson County is a vital battleground area in which Lindsey has consulted on numerous campaigns and helped move municipal, county, and state offices towards Democratic leadership. Prior to joining the Hilltop team, Lindsey also spent time working for Governor Polis’s Fiscal Policy Advisor and former State Treasurer Cary Kennedy, where her fiscal and economic research ultimately helped contribute to crucial 2020 ballot measures. Most recently, Lindsey served as State Representative and national leader on Gun Violence Prevention Tom Sullivan’s Chief of Staff, where she helped Sullivan pass groundbreaking GVP legislation including Extreme Risk Protection Orders (ERPO) and the creation of Colorado’s first Office of Gun Violence Prevention.

Lindsey has a Bachelor’s Degree from the University of Colorado in International Studies and Economics, and is currently pursuing a Master’s Degree in Economics and Public Policy. She is originally from Minneapolis, but also grew up between New York City and Boston. Outside of school and work, Lindsey enjoys spending time with her family, exploring Colorado’s outdoors, and walking her golden retriever, Ryder.
