Amber Hewston was born and raised in Lamoille County, Vermont. After high school, Amber left Vermont to attend Clark University where she also spent two semesters abroad in the United Kingdom. She went on to earn a Master of Physical Therapy degree from California State University, Long Beach, and completed a Doctor of Physical Therapy in Pediatric Science degree at Rocky Mountain University of Health Professions. Amber has worked in pediatric physical therapy for over 12 years in Hawaii, the UK, and Vermont, where she returned in 2021 and is an Early Intervention Physical Therapist in the North Windsor and Orange County region.
Amber joined the Families and Communities Committee with Building Bright Futures in summer 2022 and has welcomed the opportunity to share her voice as a parent (and sometimes as a professional) with other families and leaders in Vermont.
Amber lives in Wilder, Vermont, and enjoys spending time with her husband and two children, exploring the Green Mountain State while skiing, hiking, and kayaking. She also loves supporting local and New England sports teams, especially baseball—Go Night Hawks and Red Sox!
