“My career has been focused on empowering connections and inspiring growth,” says Lindskoog. “In this relationship-focused role, I am honored to contribute to a project with such significance for Alaska and look forward to working closely with stakeholders to build momentum and create opportunities for shared success.”

In addition to her robust professional experience, Lindskoog actively supports her community through board service with the Alaska SeaLife Center, The Foraker Group, the Alaska Chamber, and the Resource Development Council.

“We are excited to welcome Wendy to the Donlin Gold team,” says Todd Dahlman, Donlin Gold’s general manager. “With deep experience in Alaska and strategic leadership across industries, Wendy further strengthens our commitment to meaningful engagement as we advance the project with care and integrity.”

Donlin Gold’s priorities for the remainder of 2025 include initiating efforts to prepare for the Feasibility Study update and completing the 2025 drill program focusing on converting and expanding reserves and resources.

New Oil on the North Slope
August 2026
In mid-May it was 19°F and windy at the Aurora Hotel in Deadhorse. As I stood in the parking lot surveying the surroundings, I chatted with a gentleman from Texas who works for Nabors Alaska Drilling and was in town as part of a crew tasked with getting a previously inactive drill rig up and running. He said that, according to his supervisor, spring is the windy season on the North Slope. The gusts were bracing, numbing the fingers holding my camera, but most of my attention was focused on what I could capture through the lens: work trucks, shipping containers, buildings obscured by snow whipped up by the wind.
