DEVOTED TO SATISFACTION

I have over three decades of working and advocating for struggling populations with disabilities. In addition, I am involved with the department of children's Services/ youth services and homelessness. My goal was to assist them in mental, emotional, and community stability while incorporating a healthier lifestyle, enabling them to lead a full life.

      As I witnessed the struggles and barriers that children and families endured, I became curious about how a child may feel constantly battling an autoimmune disease. My only experience is watching an adult I loved and lived with become physically, emotionally, mentally, and medically compromised. The back and forth to the hospital for the various test was draining because we were clueless about what we were battling. I could not imagine how a child may feel if this was how she felt. This is why the Color Me Royal (C.M.R) concept is unique!

    Samantha Lindesey is the Founder of Color Me Royal and has experience in the education world in both elementary and middle school for over 15 years. She has fulfilled many roles. Her roles include teacher for children with intellectual disabilities, curriculum designer, afterschool site director, and S.W.A. G dance director for afterschool, and she has worked alongside many executive directors.

​

    She is committed to empowering, encouraging, and educating children to reach their highest potential. She values inspiring children to love themselves and continuously impact their lives by promoting the importance of education, self-worth, and self-care.

    I've worked with children and helped raise my siblings for over 12 yrs. I absolutely enjoyed the experience! Anything that involves me interacting with children during creative activities is my happy place. When our Royals leave our events, my goal is that they feel better, stronger, and even more comfortable. When my mission is accomplished, it brings a smile to my face. 

    I ensure you see and feel our love and devotion to our events. Each event is unique, and each memory is sacred. We cherish the smile of the royal child.

​

    I believe that more attention to the importance of human relationships regarding building healthy, stable relationships can enrich the probability of self-love, self-worth, and self-esteem. As a social worker/counselor for adolescents with mental health and intellectual disabilities, I aim to assist my clients with the support they need to highlight their strengths within. Working with people, in general, has been a passion of mine since I was a little girl, but circumstances delayed my path. I aim to inspire little girls or boys battling autoimmune diseases to know that a delay in their journey does not determine their outcome, and their story will be their Testimony.

    The word challenge is something I embrace. I value the deep thinking it takes to get to a resolution. As a mom of two boys and an advisor to many, it's a rewarding experience for me when I help them overcome their challenging hurdles.  I value being calm, positive, trustworthy, and showing empathy when supporting staff.  My door is always open, so  I welcome the challenge when it's needed!

I have over 30 years as an accountant with another degree in Human Resource Management. I am incredibly skilled in all aspects of detailed financial analysis and offer a proven track record of achievements running numbers and conducting accurate financial forecasts. Throughout my time in the finance industry, I have also been responsible for leading a successful team. As a result, I was promoted 3 times. I work ethically and act with integrity and confidence when making business decisions.  Financial Management is rewarding, exciting and I value being able to shape the future of Color Me Royal's financial strategy.
