“To me, being a Lion Ambassador means representing Penn State and those who cam before me with dignity and pride while spreading the mission of this organization. Although every single individual at Penn State comes from different walks of life, we all are members of this amazing community that seeks to improve the world we are living in. My time with Lion Ambassadors has allowed me to surround myself with other students, faculty, and alumni who share my same passion for this University. I’ve had the opportunity of a lifetime to instill the pride that we as Penn Staters share through various projects like Guard the Lion Shrine and giving tours on campus. Through Lion Ambassadors, I have found my home here at Penn State and have met some of the most inspiring individuals along the way. The memories and relationships that I have created through this organization will be something I carry with me beyond my time at Penn State!”
