Amber is an education leader with over 18 years of experience in teaching, leadership, and systems design, specializing in inclusive education and student support structures across international contexts. She has established and led pioneering initiatives, including a Learning Support Department for bilingual learners in the Middle East, a research-based RTI framework for literacy and mathematics in Kuwait, and a comprehensive MTSS Student Support Services Department at a flagship international school in sub-Saharan Africa.
Currently, Amber leads the development of Primary School Student Support Services at an international school in Africa, collaborating with Secondary leaders to build a cohesive, whole-school approach to inclusion. She designed the Tier 1 Intervention Tool and Problem-Solving Protocol, a framework that enhances classroom-based interventions through collaboration, universal design for learning, and data-informed reflection—now shared across schools and networks throughout Africa and beyond.
Amber serves as a peer reviewer for AISA’s Student Support Services Guidebook, co-leads the EESSP Task Force for the Small Schools Guidebook (a collaboration with the U.S. Office of Overseas Schools and SENIA), and is part of the Leadership and Advocacy Team for the ISLES Collaborative. A frequent conference presenter, she recently delivered “Tier 1 Doesn’t Have to Be Scary” at the 2025 AISA Conference. Passionate about inclusion, system design, and professional learning, Amber partners with schools to create sustainable frameworks that ensure every learner thrives.
