Hi everyone,
My name is Amber and I’m currently located in San Francisco, CA but grew up in the D.C. Metro area and miss it terribly. I’m currently working for a private skincare company as their Employee Benefits Manager. I love what I do and am super focused on gaining as much experience and knowledge as possible to push myself up the corporate ladder. As we expand globally, it’s been exciting and rewarding to be able to consistently learn and challenge myself. I feel incredibly fortunate as this is something that many less dynamic companies cannot provide for their employees. Long term, I hope to gain more employee relations experience and advance within HR. As of now I only have limited leadership experience but as I advance within my career, have been trying to transition from being admin/subject matter expert and instead start viewing my position within the company from a broader, operational lens.
In my personal life, I spend most of my time trying every new restaurant that pops up and I like to consider myself a professional “brunch-er” – I’ve been known to hit up multiple brunches in one day! Something else I’m interested in is campaign politics. I’ve worked on a number of local and national political campaigns ranging from County Supervisor to Attorney General to Presidential and love the fast-paced environment.
Looking forward to working with everyone!
It is great to have you here Amber. I’m impressed with the ability to eat that many brunches! I look forward to working with you this semester.
