| Amber Zimmerman Flett’s initial interest in archaeology stemmed from social studies class in junior high school where during a field trip to the Manitoba Glass Company Site in Beausejour, Manitoba (Manitoba Provincial Heritage Site No.44), she was given the opportunity to practice standard archaeological techniques. In 1994, Amber decided to pursue a degree in Anthropology and Archaeology at the University of Winnipeg.

From 2002 to 2006, Amber worked as part of the Fire Program at Manitoba Conservation in Lac du Bonnet. It was during this time that she first made the acquaintance of Dr. Virginia Petch. In 2006, Amber came under the employ of Northern Lights Heritage Services Inc. (NLHS), and during that time (2006-2013) participated numerous archaeological projects in Manitoba and Ontario. Amber currently works for InterGroup Consultants Ltd., as a Archaeologist.
