About Amber Williams

As an Advisory Consultant at University Advisors, I connect industry leaders with academic experts to foster innovation and collaboration. I manage multiple projects and accounts, ensuring high-quality deliverables and customer satisfaction. I also leverage my CRM and communication skills to generate new leads and opportunities, expanding the network and reach of University Advisors. Before joining University Advisors in August 2023, I worked as a Business Development Specialist at Ambee, a software company that provides solutions for environmental intelligence. There, I contributed to the growth and success of the company by securing a large contract with a major client, increasing the user retention rate by 25%, and creating effective sales and marketing strategies. I also worked as a Business Specialist at Red Hat, where I supported the sales and technical teams with product knowledge and customer service. I have a Bachelor\'s degree in Business/Corporate Communications from the University of Central Missouri, where I learned the fundamentals of business, marketing, and communication. I am passionate about bridging the gap between industry and academia, and creating value for both parties. I am always eager to learn new skills and technologies, and to collaborate with diverse and talented people.
