Amber Wang’s Holiday Rules

Born in Luoyang, China, Amber Wang grew up a very gifted basketball player. At age 14, she would win a national-level championship as a part of her local basketball team. A year later, she moved to the United States to further her education. Amber enrolled at Calvary Chapel Christian School and later moved on to Wilkes University in Wilkes-Barre, PA. She left early to move back to China where she established an English training centre, Warrior Education, at age 19.

After spending time running Warrior Education, Amber decided to return to the states to finish her education at Penn State University. Here, she would struggle with mental health, as so many international students do, but with the help of friends and resources at the university she found herself in a better place. Amber hopes to use her platform as an international model to highlight the struggles of international students, and advocate for mental health globally. When Amber is not on the set of a shoot, you can find her at the gym, cooking, doing makeup tutorials, and spending time with her fiancé Michael.
