Tamara is one of my fellow Gilman Alumni Ambassador whom I had the honor to work with on several Gilman Alumni workshops and webinars. Tamara displayed dynamic communication skills to her fellow Gilman Alum on how the Gilman International Scholarship impacts their life and a potential career path to foreign service or a precursor to the Fulbright Program. Tamara is also well adapt in teaching English as as second language on virtual platforms and very passionate music teacher. She is a dynamic asset to an organization and community.
