Hi, I’m Amber

I founded ScholarBound to educate and empower families and students about how to apply for college and win scholarships.

As a middle school student, I was determined to attend a top university debt-free. I began researching colleges and scholarships and created a plan of action that propelled me to win highly competitive state and national scholarships throughout my high school and college career.

As a result, I attended Vanderbilt University fully on scholarship, with nearly $250,000 in scholarship winnings. Now as a national education coach, I share my knowledge and strategies from my own college experience.
