| Currently a seasonal performer, Amber's interest in singing blossomed in 5th Grade during her solo "debut" finale of Lead Mine Elementary's production of "A Whole Lotta' Faintin' Goin' On". Amber was awarded 1st place in a W Millbrook Jr High vocal competition, continuing on as a selected participant in the NC Honors Chorus five years in a row. Amber earned superior ratings in judged solo competitions, was a regularly selected soloist for Sanderson High's Spring Concerts, sang in the school's productions, and served as co-student director of Sanderson's "Sandpipers" in 2000-2001. Amber performed as a 2nd soprano & as a soloist with the Sandpipers at places including the Governor's Mansion, Nortell, Springmoor Retirement Home, Memorial Auditorium (Pieces of Gold), other competitions & festivals at ECU, Peace College. Amber performed with the Sandpipers during chorale group trips to Chicago & Florida. After graduation she traveled to Italy with the Sandpipers to perform in a four-city tour including a performance at the Vatican. Amber was also asked to perform several times as a soloist at the NC Bach Youth Festival. Amber finished her Bachelor's in Interdisciplinary Studies (Social Change Leadership - her self-directed major) at NCSU. She continues on in NSCUs Masters program.
