Amber Uhler’s story is nothing short of extraordinary—a remarkable testament to resilience, transformation, and the power of unwavering determination. In 2024, Amber took a courageous leap into the world of pageantry, competing in her very first competition and capturing the title of Mrs. Florida America 2024. Just a few months later, she stood on the national stage and made history, earning the crown of Mrs. Universe USA 2025. Her journey is one of triumph, courage, and inspiration, proving that dreams are attainable when paired with hard work and self-belief.

Now, Amber shares her story on stages across the nation, empowering others to shed their limits, embrace their dreams, and rise above life’s challenges.
Amber’s advocacy work is deeply personal and profoundly impactful. A non-fatal drowning survivor at the age of five, she knows firsthand the critical importance of water safety. Her mission to promote drowning prevention and swim safety ignited in 2022 when she heroically saved a drowning child’s life. From that moment, Amber’s passion transformed into action, driving her to organize workshops, partner with local and national organizations, and raise awareness at community events across the country. As Mrs. Universe USA, she uses her platform to amplify this vital cause, inspiring change and saving lives through education and awareness.
In 2024, Amber took her advocacy to new heights by championing SB544, a bill aimed at providing free swim lessons for children under five in the state of Florida. Thanks to her relentless efforts and heartfelt testimony, the bill was passed, ensuring that thousands of children have access to life-saving swim education. This landmark achievement underscores her commitment to creating meaningful change and protecting the most vulnerable.
Amber’s reign as Mrs. Universe USA is defined not just by the crown she wears, but by the impact she creates. Through her advocacy for water safety, her role in passing life-changing legislation, and her motivational storytelling, she connects with audiences on a deeply personal level, inspiring them to take action, believe in themselves, and transform their lives.
Whether addressing issues of drowning prevention, personal transformation, or the pursuit of bold dreams, Amber delivers an unforgettable message of hope and resilience. Her journey—from surviving a childhood drowning incident to saving lives, from personal transformation to national recognition, and from advocating for critical legislation to inspiring countless others—serves as a beacon of possibility.
