Testimonials
Being a Transfer Ambassador can be a life changing experience. But don't just take our word for it - hear what former Transfer Ambassadors have to say:
"I love learning about leadership and being a Transfer Ambassador gave me that experience
plus more. After serving eight years in the military I thought I knew enough about
leadership, but I was proven wrong. Most people were younger than me, but I learned
more from them than they probably did from me."
-Jaime Perez
"My involvement in Transfer Ambassadors has had the most positive, meaningful impact
on my experience at Texas Tech. I love how connected I feel to my university. This
experience provided me with transferable skills that will follow me into my career
such as leadership skills, customer service, and showing care and empathy for people
from all walks of life. Above all, the best thing I gained from being a Transfer Ambassador
is a community of transfer students that I could relate to. I've made such great friends
and connections through this organization and they have played a huge role in my success."
-Jess Walker
"Being a transfer ambassador has been one of the best experiences in my life. There
are no better words than just saying that it was a blast. This organization and position
helped me expressed myself in the best manner. Living about a million miles from my
home has never been easy, but being a Transfer Ambassador and working for this organization
have made the distance easier. I will always remember my fellow ambassadors who treated
me as their family and the Transfer Techsans members, who I have long lasting friendships
with."
-Shilp Patel
"Being a Transfer Ambassador has completely changed my life. I greatly improved skills
that I thought were just fine, and learned new skills I didn't think I was capable
of obtaining. I'm already an outgoing person, but I had no idea I would reach new
levels of the social realm. I met some of my closest friends, and had no idea how
impactful this organization would be for both my connections and friends, as well
as my future career."
-Jourdan Mead
"My experience working as a Transfer Ambassador has truly been an invaluable experience
and has set the tone for my time here at Texas Tech. This position lead me to grow
my confidence by pushing me out of my comfort zone as I learned more about the university
I love and how to help its students! Being a part of this organization taught me how
to work with a team of strong student leaders and I could not have envisioned how
much fun I would have being a part of the Transfer Ambassador family!"
-Sawyer Key
"Being a Transfer Ambassador has given me the opportunity to do what I love most and
that is helping people. I got to meet some amazing people along the way and I call
some friends. Every second spent as a TA felt so rewarding and fulfilling. The experience
and skills I gained will forever be with me and I appreciate every single bit of it."
-Kwasi Buahin
"Being a Transfer Ambassador has been such an amazing experience. It has made me more
confident in myself and my leadership abilities. It has truly made me feel at home
here at Texas Tech, and getting the chance to make other transfers feel at home here,
too, has been so fulfilling. I am so thankful for the opportunity and the family that
I found in Transfer Connection!"
-Karlee Roach
"I have grown so much, both as a person and as a student, through my tenure as a Transfer
Ambassador. Most importantly, this program introduced me to my second family and my
home-away-from-home! I can't even imagine how different my life here at Tech would
be if I had not decided to take that leap of faith into the unknown, but I do know
that it's brought me nothing but growth, positivity, and happiness. This job is more
than just a paycheck – it's a chance to change your life, and the lives of those around
you, for the better! I will be forever grateful to this program and the opportunities
that it's provided me, and I am proud to be a Texas Tech Transfer Ambassador."
-Jamie Herndon
"This job has given me so many opportunities to give back to both the school and my
peers over the last 9 months. You are given the opportunity to really step up as a
leader in the community and leave your mark on the school and its students by planning
events, running summer orientations, and acting as a mentor to new transfers. You
can really make this a rewarding experience and I am so, so glad I had the chance
to give back to Tech during my last year here."
-Christian Harper-Sanchez
"I absolutely love being a Transfer Ambassador. I get to improve my leadership and
communication skills while helping students in the Texas Tech community. Transfer
Techsans became my family and it never feels like work!"
-Gabbi Moore
"Being an Ambassador helped me better myself for my future. I was able to grow my
abilities as a leader, such as working in teams and being in front of groups of people
to become a better speaker. These transferable skills helped me to do better in interviews
and even helped me gain some skills that helped me get a job before I even graduated."
