Amber received her J.D. from Mitchell Hamline School of Law in St. Paul, Minnesota. During law school, Amber served as a certified student attorney with Mitchell Hamline’s medical-legal partnership program assisting indigent clients in a variety of civil matters as well as serving as a member of the Mitchell Hamline Ambassador program. Amber earned her Bachelor of Arts at Concordia College, where she majored in political science, minored in coaching, and was a member of the women’s basketball team.
