Amber came to NC State for engineering in 2009. She started with an interest in aerospace engineering but soon discovered a preference for industrial and systems engineering and switched to that degree program in her sophomore year.
Amber is actively involved in the NC State community. She has served as an Engineering Outreach Ambassador and thoroughly enjoys giving the community a taste of what engineering has to offer. A member of the Society of Women Engineers (SWE), she is also an alumna of the Women in Science & Engineering (WISE) program and has served as a summer mentor for the girls ESCAPE to Engineering Camp.
(n) Engineering involves the application of creativity in partnership with math, science, social studies, language arts and fine arts to search for quicker, better and less expensive ways to use the forces and materials of nature to meet today's challenges. Engineers are problem solvers who use every resource possible to bring into existence things and ideas that they imagine.
