Amber Harris

I strive to work in a sports setting, where I can show my skills and do what I love to do. I haven't had employment before due to being an athlete all my life. I played basketball in high school, college, and the WNBA. Playing the sport of basketball has showed me how to be a leader and good listener. I worked hard to have those accomplishments and will continue to work hard in the business part of things.
