Author: Amber Jorgenson

Amber earned her bachelor’s degree in journalism, advertising, and media studies from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. She formerly worked as the opinion editor at the school’s student run newspaper, The UWM Post, and interned at Milwaukee Magazine. In her spare time, she enjoys watching the Minnesota Vikings, weightlifting, and setting off the fire alarm while experimenting in the kitchen. She currently lives on the south side of Milwaukee and plans on adopting a cat, although she knows she will leave the shelter with no less than two.
