Amber Burchfield, Editor-in-Chief

Hi everyone! My name is Amber Burchfield and this is my third year being apart of the Central Digest. This year I am a senior, and I am the editor-in-chief. After graduating I plan to attend MTSU and become an equine vet. I enjoy competing in my horse competitions, and spending time with friends and family. I am so excited to be able to share my stories one last year with the Digest, and I hope to put smiles on everyone's face!
