About Amara Tang
With over 9 years of experience in higher education, I bring a comprehensive background spanning various areas including Career Services, Transfer Services, General Counseling, and specialized programs such as EOPS, CARE, NextUp, and more. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working closely with students from diverse backgrounds, cultural experiences, and intersectional identities. In my counseling experiences and leadership roles, I have acquired strong skills in program assessment, implementation and evaluation as well as developed exceptional skills in academic advising, career and transfer planning, and personal counseling. My counseling approach prioritizes student empowerment and addresses the unique needs of individual students with patience, determination, and cultural humility. I am deeply passionate about fostering holistic student development, closing equity gaps for disproportionately impacted students, and supporting students in reaching their academic goals and career aspirations.
