Amber is a proud Virginia native, born in Virginia Beach and raised in Woodbridge. She studied Elementary Education at the University of Valley Forge and taught K-1 in the public school system. Though she loved the classroom, she took a leap of faith to pursue a Master of Divinity at AGTS in Springfield, MO. While in seminary she felt her calling clarify to local church ministry; she served on staff at a church plant which worked with people transitioning out of addiction, incarceration, and trafficking. After graduating, she married David, who brings spontaneity to her scheduled to-do list days. Amber is passionate about education (from literacy to theology), cupcakes, reading, glitter & bows, and hearing life stories.
