Who is Amber Borzotra?

Amber Borzotra was born on January 13, 1988, to a German mother, Ondina, and an American father, Allan Borzotra. The pair met when Borzotra was deployed to Germany as a US Army combat medic. She has two siblings - sister Ariana and brother Aaron.

Borzotra was raised in Knoxville, Tennessee. Her single mother raised her in a modest upbringing. In her 'Big Brother' bio, she mentioned that she lived in a low-income housing and wanted to use her fame to help her family. "I would enjoy my moment but still stay humble." she said when asked about what she would do with her 'Big Brother' fame.

"I would love to take my family on a vacation, pay it forward and make sure my mother never had to work again. I would like to pay off my debts and maybe one day become an entertainment or ESPN host." she added. Before being a TV personality, she worked as an esthetician. Other than having starred in 'Big Brother' and 'The Challenge', her acting work also includes 'Fierce', 'Pillow Talk with Amber & Hannah', 'Just Living: The Web-Series', 'Nerdist Presents', 'Little Mermaid' and 'The Bold and the Beautiful'.

While on season 36 of 'The Challenge: Double Agents', Borzotra was determined to win the show to make her mother proud. She did fairly well on the show, being safe for the most part. During the final round, she was partnered with six time show winner Chris "CT" Tamburello, and the two went on to win season 36.



 

Her net worth

As reported by BuzzLearn Borzotra's net worth is an estimated $1 million -$5 million. On season 36 of 'The Challenge', she made $450,000 for winning the Final Mission. She also won an additional $5,000 during the interrogation challenge on the season, resulting in the total winning of $455,000.



 

Is Borzotra a part of season 37?
