Lindsey Wehking

Chief Investigative Strategy Officer, Nonfiction Research

Lindsey Wehking (she/her) is a Chief Investigative Strategy Officer at Nonfiction Research. She is on a mission to draw people out of hiding around sexuality so we can express and navigate desire more skilfully and pleasurably.

Lindsey is the author of Desire Codes, a tool by Nonfiction Research for sexual discovery born from a year long qualitative and quantitative study into sexuality in America. Nonfiction explores the hidden parts of American life through immersive research. Their researchers have sat beside patients in hospitals, inmates in prison, and have interviewed Atlanta rappers while rollerblading. Nonfiction’s findings have been featured by ABC News, Axios, MSNBC, Fox News, and FastCompany. Their work has inspired public service campaigns, a division at Disney, new flavors of Doritos, and a Megan Thee Stallion song.

Lindsey is based in Brooklyn in the United States.
