Amber was born and raised in Orlando, Florida, which quickly fostered her disgust with the clean, controlled commercialization rapidly overtaking everyday life. This can be seen through her strong appreciation of tactility and materiality, with her process beginning asynchronous from technology leading to an authentic, human-made composition. Currently, she is pursuing a BFA in Graphic Design at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga and working as a Creative Services Generalist at a local nonprofit.
