About

My name is Amber Spedden, and currently I am a second semester freshman at Southeastern University. I am the daughter of an Assembly of God ordained minister. As the oldest of four children, I have a younger sister, and two younger brothers. My entire family sings, and can play at least one instrument.

Goals and interests

Career goal

My goal is to become a marriage and family counselor, and to also be involved in crisis counseling. I want to be able to help victims of rape, abuse, and other traumatic circumstances. I would also like to help families that are struggling, and be a part of helping couples save and keep their marriages strong.

Outside the classroom

I love to capture the moment through photography. My favorite place to be is in the mountains in Tennessee. I enjoy going camping and hiking while we are there. I have always loved being involved in athletics, whether I am playing the sport, coaching, or observing.
