What the Guides Said
Housing Action Coalition✓ EndorsesAbout Seema Lindskog
Seema Sharma Lindskog’s story spans continents, cultures, and communities. She grew up in both Paris and India, absorbing the perspectives of two very different worlds from an early age. That global upbringing shaped her adaptability and deep respect for people from all walks of life—qualities that would later define both her professional success and her commitment to community service. Seeking to deepen her skills and broaden her impact, Seema moved to the United States to attend graduate school at Carnegie Mellon, where her analytical rigor and creative problem-solving quickly set her apart.
Professionally, Seema built an 20+ year career as a marketing leader, guiding strategy and execution for Fortune 500 companies including Kraft Foods and Roku while also consulting with smaller, growing organizations. When it was time to start a family, she and her husband Erik chose Cupertino. Twenty years later, she is running for City Council. She brings ethical, caring, data-driven leadership, deep roots in the community, a proven track record of results, and the values instilled in her since childhood: hard work, service, and lifting up the next generation.
Seema Lindskog on Housing and Abundance
“Faster permits, reduced permit fees, and less red tape to help seniors build ADUs, families afford quality childcare, and homeowners do small upgrades without breaking the bank.”
“Add starter homes for young families on major streets near transit and retail – this will protect our neighborhoods, boost our small businesses, and reduce traffic.”
“Seema has a track record of delivering real results for residents from the Regnart Creek Trail to more housing choices and streamlined permits for ADUs and small home upgrades.”
