What is your favorite thing about Mississippi State? "My favorite thing about State is how down to earth and kind everyone is. I also love the football games and the cowbell tradition!"

What is your favorite thing about Zeta? "My favorite thing about Zeta is everyone accepts me and loves me for who I am. I don't feel like I have to change anything about myself."

What is something you are passionate about? "I am really passionate about mental health awareness and suicide prevention. I have been working on a video and other things I hope to have posted on social media soon to inform people about certain mental health issues that are prominent among young women."

What is an interesting fact about you? "People wouldn't expect this, but I absolutely love Star Trek and Spock is my favorite sci-fi character ever!"

*Amber now has her own Tumblr blog that promotes her passion for mental health awareness and contains interviews with people who have overcome issues such as eating disorders, self-harm, and depression. We love how she incorporated Zeta's symbol of the crown in order to promote awareness.
