Cursive signature

was born in the great basin of Lake Ontario in 1987. She is an artist, creator, mother, embodiment and imagination guide, and small business coach. She has studied and taught yoga, restorative yoga and Yoga Nidra for over a decade. She offers grounding and guidance on journeys of the spirit through practices of movement, deep rest, and Earth-honoring ritual practices. Amber is passionate about creating and holding space for others to explore their inner worlds. Her work opens pathways to imagination, self-discovery, and connection to one’s inner wisdom and heart’s desire.

Amber’s first language was painting, and creating art has been her primary mode of expression and connection. After studying painting in college she went on to found an ice cream company, Eat Me Ice Cream, that specialized in from-scratch, local ice cream inspired by the growing season of the Finger Lakes in NYS. That business journey lasted a decade and initiated her into all the facets of the business lifecycle: founding, funding, operating and exiting. Amber has used her business expertise to consult with small businesses to help them navigate growth, go to market strategies, and with project management. She is a fierce advocate for the success of small businesses. Small businesses are what make our communities vibrant, and having a thriving businesses requires skills that are learnable.

Amber continued to nurture her passions while growing her company: maintaining an artist studio, and practicing and teaching yoga and meditation. Amber has completed Yoga trainings in:

  • Registered Yoga Teacher 200 hr with Francois Raoult

  • Pranayama Teacher Training with Francois Raoult

  • Level 1 Rest & Renew Yoga with Judith Lasater

  • Yoga Nidra with Tracee Stanley and Dr. Chanti Tacoronte-Perez.

She continues to study with Robinette Kennedy working with the Earth-honoring ritual practices of Tibet and Ancient Greece. She currently lives and makes ice cream at home in Rochester, NY with her family & dog Gus.
