Lindsay Hood is an Assignment Editor at NBC 7 / Telemundo 20 where she handles guests on her TV show. Lindsay was born with Amniotic Band Syndrome that resulted in losing her fingers and a leg when she's still inside the womb. She experienced bullying as a kid because of her condition that made her childhood a little bit tougher. Despite her condition, she played volleyball and she has thrived as an adaptive athlete playing Women's Football for 7 years.
