Amber is an Anishnabe and Dene beadwork artist, powwow singer and dancer. She learned to do beadwork from her family. Amber sat down and asked many different people to share their styles of beadwork. Amber now uses the two-needle style of beadwork taught by her mother Cynthia Asp this style comes from her northern BC and Yukon people.

Inspired by her paternal and maternal Great Grandmothers, Amber then took the time to learn to make moccasins and other regalia items. Recently, Amber took up the art of moose and caribou hair tufting learning from various community workshops. Amber is passionate at showcasing her distinct cultures in her artwork by incorporating contemporary and traditional designs and mediums.
