BISON AMBADASSOR
Every campus has a story, but not everyone knows how to tell it. I do. While prospective students and families walk through Gallaudet hoping to understand who we are, I’m the one guiding them through the heart of the university, offering clarity, connection, and a presence they can trust. Being a Bison Ambassador wasn’t just a student role; it was where I learned how to represent something bigger than myself, communicate with precision, and lead with confidence in every room I stepped into.
I worked in environments where communication, adaptability, and composure determined whether a moment made an impact or fell flat. I chose impact every time. I became the person people rely on when professionalism matters, when leadership is needed, and when authenticity sets the tone. This page is more than a summary; it is the foundation of how I learned to connect, represent, and elevate the experience for everyone I met.
What I Delivered
I represented Gallaudet University with professionalism, clarity, and purpose in every interaction. As a Bison Ambassador, I was responsible for shaping first impressions, guiding prospective students and families, and delivering a campus experience that reflected the culture, pride, and values of the world’s only Deaf university.
