Amber Vancuren
Membership Chair
Hi! I’m Amber Vancuren, and I’m thrilled to be an active member of our PTA. When I’m not volunteering or attending school events, you’ll often find me engaged in some of my favorite hobbies. I enjoy riding my motorcycle because it allows me to interact with other female riders and to be apart of an organization. I also enjoy spending quality time outdoors with my family, exploring local parks, and finding new ways to stay active together.
