Amber Lyn Simard

I am the Undergraduate Secretary for Political Science and International Studies here at the University of Alabama. I provide support to students and faculty members in my department as well as the Arts and Sciences college. I schedule rooms for classes and meetings, create classes, and designed the Political Science official banner. I am also responsible for student holds and records, and provide general office assistance wherever I am needed. I currently supervise three student assistants and am grateful for a leadership opportunity.

I started as a Baking Associate in January 2011. I have recently been promoted to Cake Decorator at Winn Dixie, giving me larger responsibilities and opportunities for leadership experience. I decorate baked goods, keep inventory, bake, provide customer service, and report to the Store Director.
