We cannot wait to see all that she brings to the park and to region as her passion is outdoor recreation, and environmental education. She is looking forward to helping create a more inclusive, safe, and welcoming environment for all visitors.

In her free time, Amber likes to hike and spend time outdoors with her dog named Fred and wait patiently in fields for the perfect photo of a sunset.
