About the Directors
Lindsay Joe, DIRECTOR
512.732.9280 X33999 [email protected] I was born and raised in Austin, spent my life dancing since the age of three, and quickly discovered my passion to teach. After being lead by such inspiring directors at Westwood High School, it was obvious that drill team directing would be my path. I am so fortunate to have a calling that enables me to do what I love while working with the wonderful and dedicated students at Westlake High School. I am so blessed by the incredibly talented members of Hyline and Star Steppers and am extremely grateful for these organizations filled with such loving and encouraging members and parents. We truly are a family that I feel honored to be a part of. I married my husband, Tyson, in March 2013. We welcomed our son in 2015 and daughter in 2018! EDUCATION and EXPERIENCE:

Madison Cashion, ASSISTANT DIRECTOR 512.732.9280 X33999 [email protected] I was born and raised in Bryan/College Station, and began my dance training at the age of two. I fell in love with drill team and teaching because of my high school director, Anna McBride. She taught me so much more than dancing- about how to lead and grow as a person. I wish nothing more than to bring that same experience to the dancers that go through our program. Hyline and Star Steppers are known as incredible programs filled with young dancers who want to make an impact on each other and those around them. I firmly believe that leadership is a learned skill that takes time and effort to cultivate. It is an honor to work with students who lead with this idea at the forefront of their mind. I am ecstatic to get to work with our dancers and to be a part of the Westlake community!
