Amber Vanderwal

Paralegal

More About Amber:

My Background:

I grew up in Rock Rapids, IA, and after high school I attended SouthEast Tech for Graphic Design.  I ended up graduating from Dordt University a couple of years later with my bachelor’s degree in business administration.  

How I got to EPS: 

Becoming a Paralegal was never on my radar until I learned about EPS.  I spent over 15 years doing healthcare and technology work after I graduated from college, and it turns out that through that training and experience, God was prepping me for my role here.  

Why I Love it Here:

A few reasons….The people and culture at EPS make this place amazing.  I like that everything that we do is done with honesty and integrity.  I didn’t always see that in the industry I was in before coming here, but it’s really a priority here.  

Outside of Work:

When I’m not in the office, I spend most of my time with my husband, and running our three kids around to all their activities and sports!

Most People Don’t Know: 

I ran a half marathon this year, I have twins, my husband is Canadian, all three of my kids are dual citizens, and I know every word to many random songs….

My Favorite: 

  • Sports team:  Nebraska – Go Big Red!
  • Song:  “Counting My Blessings” by Seph Schlueter
  • Food:  Chips and queso, or salsa
  • Place:  The ocean, Florida, British Columbia
  • TV Show:  The Office

More About Amber:

 

Priorities at EPS:

I respect that faith and family are at the top of the list of values that EPS holds.

My Childhood:

I grew up in Sibley, Iowa. We had one stoplight. You may have traveled there in the 90’s for $.99 movies. Did I mention we had a stoplight? My first “real” job was a lifeguard; however we all had to “ride beans” and “pick rock” in the fields as kids starting at age 8.

 

You Might Not Know: 

I’ve completed 9 marathons, I am the mother of triplets, and a former registered nurse. I also once went running with VP Al Gore. The secret service lingered in the parameter. It was awesome. I also am a night owl and collect flying pigs. Don’t ask. And I go to Target a lot.

 

My Favorites:

Quote:  “Do one thing each day that scares you.” – Eleanor Roosevelt
Sports Teams: Red Sox or whatever team my kids are on
Food: Seafood, Mexican, Sushi.
Place: Hawaii
