Lindsey Laupola serves as a Public Education Research & Development Specialist in the Office of the Governor of American Samoa. In this role, she focuses on the Territory’s political status, constitutional review, and federal relations, aiming to strengthen and clarify American Samoa’s relationship within the broader frameworks of the Pacific region and the United States.
In 2023, Lindsey was selected as an inaugural Resilient Pacific Islands Leaders Fellow with the East-West Center, where she deepened her commitment to regional collaboration and developed a passion for amplifying Pacific voices in federal and international discussions.

She envisions a future where the collective strength of Pacific Island communities fosters unity, resilience, and opportunity.
