Amber is a dedicated professional with a lifelong commitment to fostering the growth and development of children by meeting them at their unique starting points and guiding them toward their full potential. With over a decade of experience as an Infant Development Specialist at Bright Horizons, Amber honed her expertise in observing and supporting children on an individual basis, including those with special needs, while residing in Chicago. In 2012, she relocated to Houston, where she embraced motherhood and founded a successful business as a reading tutor for children ages 4–13. Her tutoring practice specializes in creating patient, engaging, and supportive learning environments that empower young learners to excel.

Amber firmly believes that children have limitless potential when provided with opportunities, time, and a safe space to explore their curiosity about the world. She finds great joy in witnessing their excitement as they achieve success in their creations and experiments, or gain insights through hands-on learning experiences that teach resilience and problem-solving.

Amber’s passion for innovative educational approaches led her to discover Acton Academy while searching for a school for her son. She and her son have been proud members of the Acton Academy community for over 5 years. Amber is deeply committed to encouraging children to explore the outdoors, ensuring their voices are heard, and fostering an environment where they feel valued and respected every day.
