Amber Schuster is a sophomore student with a major in Biology. She is currently on the pre-nursing track and will attend Jefferson University during her junior and senior years! Amber’s biggest excitement for Arcadia is when fall truly begins. Amber is interested in working with the OCE because of her love of helping others. She wants to be able to give back to the community and be as involved as she can! Alongside her job, Amber enjoys learning how to play the ukulele. Amber says that she is nowhere near being able to play an entire song yet. It is one of her goals to learn how to play Sweet Creature by Harry Styles by the end of the year!
