Amber Helms Recognized as a 2026 Young Professional

Congratulations to Amber Helms, Investment Operations Registered Associate, on being named a 2026 Young Professional by the Wichita Business Journal. The recognition is based on information gathered during the past year about nominees’ career accomplishments and current roles.¹

This recognition reflects Amber’s contributions to both 6 Meridian and our community. At 6 Meridian, she helps oversee our non-liquid investment portfolios. These alternative investment vehicles can play an important role in portfolio diversification and require ongoing due diligence, monitoring and operational oversight. Through this work, Amber helps keep these investments aligned with client objectives and our practice’s investment standards.

For Amber, the work is rooted in service, strong teamwork, and the client experience:

“I am passionate about serving others and helping create the operational integrity that enables great client experiences. Just as importantly, I value being part of a strong organization with talented people, and that combination continues to make this work rewarding.”

Ammie Weidner, Director of Trading and Operations, sees that commitment reflected in Amber’s work and the way she supports others:

“Amber brings care, attention to detail, and a strong sense of ownership to her work and the people around her. She is knowledgeable, dependable, and always willing to support her teammates. Above all, she genuinely cares about doing the right thing for our clients. Her positive attitude and willingness to go above and beyond strengthen both our team and the client experience.”

From all of us at 6 Meridian – congratulations, Amber, on this well-deserved recognition!
