Bio
As the owner and CEO of Blind Eye Restoration, Lindsay Jones has made a business out of her passion for old buildings and public art. With more than 15 years of experience in the construction industry, an MS in Historic Preservation, and professional roles spanning the country, she has created her dream contracting company in Ohio. Jones has been featured as an up and coming restoration professional in Preservation Magazine, been awarded contracts for art restoration with the City of Columbus and The Columbus Art Museum, and regularly lectures and gives hands-on workshops for local homeowners, trades training programs, and high school and college level students. Her business goals include encouraging more women to work in the trades, educating more people about preservation and the inherently "green" aspects of maintaining historic buildings, and teaching homeowners how to work on their own homes to keep more of those historic homes out of landfills.
