I decided to become an ambassador because it gives me more opportunities to build relationships with people and to help them in any way I can. To challenge myself to grow so I can become better than I was.

I am happy to have the opportunity to be a Student Ambassador for MTECH. My first experiences with the school's faculty were very encouraging and motivating. These experiences helped me decide to start my program. This is why I wanted to be a representative for MTECH. I want to help be a part of that warm welcome for someone else. I am excited to meet current and potential MTECH students and learn what motivates them!

I absolutely love MTECH! This school has given me so much more than just an education - it's provided me with a sense of direction, purpose, and community. I love to connect with other students who share a passion for the trades, learn from skilled instructors, and gain practical experience that will serve me well in my future career. It's such an incredible feeling to be a part of this community, which is why I decided to become a student ambassador. As a student ambassador, I'm committed to helping others discover the benefits of a trade school education and encouraging them to consider this amazing path for their own futures.

I wanted to be an ambassador because of the growth and opportunities it provides and because it was something that made me uncomfortable. The EMT course is the second course I have taken through MTECH, the first being the CNA program, so I am not new to discovering what you like and continuing your education. I love teaching people and helping others discover what they want to do and become, and I am grateful to be able to represent MTECH and to be able to do that through the ambassador program.
