Prior to joining Transcend, Amber served in various support professional roles at both the central office and school-site levels for the Clark County School District in Nevada. At Victoria Fertitta Middle School as the school administrative secretary, she developed an endearment for middle-school-aged students and passion for leadership, school culture, equitable learning environments, and evidence-based decision-making.

During the pandemic, Amber was inspired to return to school and earn a Bachelor of Science in Data Management and Analytics from Western Governors University. She spends her time outside of work and school chauffeuring her three children to an array of sporting and extracurricular activities, and planning long weekend escapes from the Las Vegas heat with her husband, Damon.
