Speaking & Training
Bring Disability, Design, and Dignity to the Front of the Room
Amber doesn’t just talk about accessibility—she lives it. As a nationally recognized advocate, consultant, paraplegic and parent to children with disabilities, she weaves lived experience with policy expertise to spark conversations that matter. Whether she’s speaking to government leaders, nonprofit teams, corporate staff, or family communities, Amber helps audiences rethink what’s possible when we lead with inclusion.
Through keynotes, trainings, and workshops, Amber challenges outdated assumptions, shares real-world strategies, and invites participants to create meaningful change—from the inside out.
