Coyote Ambassador Alumni
Our Coyote Ambassadors (CA's) are a fantastic group of student leaders and we are really proud of the work they do for our Campus Tours and Visitor Center! Year after year our Coyote Ambassadors transform the visitor experience at CSUSB, and although we are sad every time our CAs leave we are genuinely proud of each and every one of them. Check out our past Coyote Ambassadors and what they are up to now!

What will you miss about being a Coyote Ambassador?
"What I will miss most about being a Coyote Ambassador is all the new people you come across while giving a tour. It was fun to give tours when you had an engaging crowd. Due to the fact that not only do you learn new stuff about different people they also can teach you something about yourself!"
What advice do you have for future Coyote Ambassadors?
“Some advice I have for the future Coyote Ambassadors is to not be afraid to push yourself out of your comfort zone. You will never know what will come if you allow yourself to stay within your comfort zone.”
What are you doing after graduation?
“Ever since graduating, I plan to find jobs where I can work very closely with the youth. I have always had a passion for helping the younger generation who lack resources and helping them see there is a brighter future ahead for them.”

Dylan
Earned Degree: Bachelor of Arts in Sociology
What will you miss about being a Coyote Ambassador?
"What I will miss the most about being a Coyote Ambassador is, the opportunities I had to meet and form connections with many prospective students as well as meeting some amazing teachers on my group tours. I will definitely miss showing them around the school when they return for future visits.”
What advice do you have for future Coyote Ambassadors?
“My advice for future Coyote Ambassadors is, some of the stuff gets repetitive so try not to lose your energy explaining to new sets of people. My other piece of advice is 'own the show,' and tell your group about yourself. I once learned from a former professor of mine that when you tell your students about who you are talk about who you are outside of school and work and your interests you open a window as a way to connect with your group/students. They will remember that. As I told Jason to be the queen!”
What are you doing after graduation?
“As for after graduation, I plan to still be serving our incoming students by being either an academic advisor or an admissions counselor at the university level.”
Camille
Earned Degree: Bachelor of Arts in Psychology
What will you miss about being a Coyote Ambassador?
"What I will miss about being a coyote ambassador is everything! From the amazing friendships I’ve gained with my fellow ambassadors and being able to share my experience as a proud coyote with others. I will miss making connections with anyone and all who visited CSUSB!”
What advice do you have for future Coyote Ambassadors?
“My advice for a future Coyote Ambassador is to make every interaction with those you encounter memorable! You make it memorable by sharing your personal experiences and connecting, never forget you’re a big part of someone else’s experience.”
What are you doing after graduation?
“Now after graduating, I am pursuing a Graduate degree in School Psychology and planning to become a substitute teacher as I go through my program. I am very excited about what is to come!”
