In 2019, Amber decided to channel her passion for helping others by earning her EMT-Basic certification, laying the foundation for a promising career in EMS.

A self-proclaimed Costco enthusiast, she enjoys the thrill of shopping and finds joy in attending concerts. As the youngest of four siblings and the only girl, Amber shares a special bond with her family, particularly with her nieces and nephews. Her role as an “obsessed auntie” is one she holds dearly, bringing boundless energy and affection to her family gatherings. At home, she is the proud owner of a dog named Gary Potter, who adds even more warmth and joy to her life.
