Amanda Mulder is a 34 year old full-time student at Mercyhurst University in Erie, Pennsylvania. She is from Butler, Pennsylvania, a small town located 35 miles North of Pittsburgh. Her present status is that of a transient student for the fall session.
Amanda earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary and Special Education from Mercyhurst University. She also has a Master’s Degree in Special Education with a concentration in Applied Behavior Analysis, also from Mercyhurst University.
Amanda chose Mercyhurst because “Hurst is home”. During her undergraduate days, she always felt at home on the Mercyhurst campus. The class sizes are small, but Mercyhurst has an exceptional student activities committee, and there was always a lot to do on campus. Student Activities supported her when she was a sophomore and started a campus Medieval and Renaissance Appreciation Guild.
Although she does not play a sport Amanda is a Zumba and Renaissance Dance instructor in her free time. This more than makes up for any vigorous exercise that she would do by playing a sport.
Something that Amanda was very proud of and wanted to share about herself is that she performed in the World’s Largest Orchestra in Pittsburgh at the Civic Arena. On April 19, 1998 the orchestra was comprised of one thousand two hundred and fifty-two string players, five hundred woodwinds, and two hundred and fifty percussionists for a world record total of two thousand one hundred and forty-nine members.
Amanda also has a passion for theater and performing arts in the community. Her interest in professional acting was rewarded with the MVP at Laurel’s House of Horror in Maryland, the highest acting award. Here in Erie, her acting talents were appreciated when she was hired by Eeriebyss to act this past October for the Halloween season. And if that is not enough, she is a professional Escape Room Gamemaster. Mercyhurst University is fortunate to have a person of this caliber as part of its family.
