Hello!

My name is Amber Hughes, I’m a communication studies student that has always been dedicated to developing my skills to best serve my community.

My Story

I grew up in the small town of Stillwater, Pennsylvania, and I'm currently pursuing my undergrad at Commonwealth University – Bloomsburg, studying Communications with a minor in Political Science. I've always had a passion for leadership, community involvement, and finding ways to make a difference. Growing up in a rural community has taught me the importance of building relationships, getting involved, and taking advantage of opportunities, even when they push me outside of my comfort zone.

​

My passion for community involvement really started in high school when I founded a Youth Action Board through a local nonprofit, For The Cause. What started as an idea to get more young people involved in our community turned into an opportunity to lead projects, organize fundraisers, and work alongside some pretty incredible people. That experience helped me realize how much I enjoy bringing people together and using communication to create positive a positive change.

​

Today, I work in Communications and Marketing at the Columbia Montour Chamber of Commerce, where I've had the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in public relations, event planning, marketing, and community engagement. Outside of work and school, I stay involved in several community organizations and leadership programs. I'm especially interested in the connection between communication, public service, and leadership, and I hope to build a career where I can combine all three.

​

When I'm not balancing school, work, and community commitments, I love visiting new coffee shops, traveling (especially to Disney World!), reading on my Kindle, and spending time with friends and family. I'm someone who enjoys staying busy, and always having something to look forward to.

​

I created this website as a place to share a little more about who I am, the experiences that have shaped me, and the work I'm proud of. Whether it's a project I've worked on, an organization I'm involved with, or something I've learned along the way, I hope this site gives you a better understanding of my interests, experiences, and where I hope to go next.

Contact

I'm always looking for new and exciting opportunities. Let's connect.
