Model, Actress and App Developer /IOS Programmer : Lyndsey Scott

Nationality: (New Jersey) American.

Ethnicity: African descent.

Lyndsey is a successful model with a Computer Science major who creates apps and promote diversity in the tech world..

After graduating from Amherst College with dual majors in Theater and Computer Science, Lyndsey started acting and modeling in NYC and soon became the first African-American model ever to land the prestigious Calvin Klein exclusive during fashion week.

Shows such as Prada, Gucci, Louis Vuitton, and The Victoria’s Secret Show soon followed as did campaigns for clients such as DKNY, Baby Phat, and Covergirl and shoots for magazines such as W and Italian Vogue.

Although she currently devotes the majority of her time to her first love — acting, Lyndsey has also returned to her love for technology and now also devotes a portion of her time to programming iOS apps, several of which are currently available on the Apple App Store.

She enjoys helping others with their code — she’s ranked as one of the top iOS answerers on the #1 programming site, Stack Overflow; has recently joined the prestigious tutorial team at raywenderlich.com; and has done video tutorials for kids co-starring the likes of Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg for Code.org.
