Amber Tyrala

Advisor since: September 2020

Academic Advising Interests: During academic advising meetings, I prioritize having a trusting and open conversation. I strive to empower students to be the leaders of their academic journey, and to also recognize that it is okay to ask for help, self-advocate, and utilize resources.

Previous work experience: My first job in Isenberg was working as the receptionist in the Undergraduate Programs and Advising Office. Before working in Isenberg, I worked at the UMass Hadley Farm as a horseback riding instructor.

Interests, hobbies, fave activities: During my free time I like to hang out with my family, ride and practice liberty training with my horses, and go on walks with my dog. I enjoy staying active and being outside. I also like to bake.
