Lininger was born in Ashland, Oregon. She earned a bachelor's degree from Yale University and a law degree from New York University School of Law. She worked as an attorney in private practice and from 2001 to 2004, served as director of the Community Development Law Center in Portland, a nonprofit that provides legal assistance to tax-exempt entities in Oregon. From 2004 to 2008, she was a program officer at the Meyer Memorial Trust, directing programs on financing charitable real estate projects and promoting access to affordable housing.
In early 2009, Lininger was appointed to fill Martha Schrader's seat on the Clackamas County Board of Commissioners when Schrader was appointed to the Oregon Senate. She ran successfully to complete the term in 2010 and did not seek re-election in 2012 when she was hired as general counsel and vice president at Oregon Iron Works.
