TiffanySummerville (talk) 18:01, 18 January 2024 (UTC)Amber Corbett is trailblazing paths and breaking barriers. The 23-year-old is the first African American woman to be crowned "Miss Intercontentinal USA" in the pageant's history (51 years). This native New Yorker has been brilliantly and gracefully utilizing her amplified microphone to inspire women and girls who look like her and everyone who can see themselves in her.[reply]
Corbett is a Marketing Coordinator in Ad Sales at NBCUniversal Peacock and Scripted Development Division. She is a driven marketing professional passionate about creating cultural diversity and acceptance in the workplace. Independently, Corbett has established a support resource for young women entitled “She’s Represented” to help others navigate anxiety in the workplace. This platform will serve as a space for women of color in corporate America to network, find support, and decompress. She believes in the power and importance of diversity across all platforms. “I am honored to represent the USA and be the first African American woman to do so for such an important organization. It is essential for all girls and women, especially those who look like me, to see themselves and know that possibilities are limitless,” states Corbett. Corbett amplified awareness about the Miss Intercontinental pageant, its dedication to “Power and Beauty,” and its commitment to diversity for all women within and beyond the United States.
Miss Intercontinental USA National Director Suzi Hosfeld and supporters celebrated Miss Corbett's crowning with a press reception. Her official debut was on Saturday, July 22nd. Corbett competed with 65 women worldwide for the title holder of Miss Intercontinental in the "City of Peace" Sharm El Sheik, Egypt.
A two-time recipient of President Obama's Volunteer Service Award, She has worked closely with several non-profit organizations: the Andrus Foundation, which provides a sanctuary for children to prevent and overcome the effect of childhood adversity, and the People Connect Foundation to create opportunities for underprivileged youth to travel beyond their borders.
Corbett earned her Bachelor of Business Science degree from Pace University's Lubin School of Business (Cum Laude) in Advertising and Integrated Marketing Communications, with a minor in Digital Marketing. Corbett is honored to be A Forbes 30 Under 30 2019 Scholar.
