About Tara Gamble

Title: Business Staff Specialist  

Department/School: UCF RESTORES 

Start date at UCF: June 2022 

Hometown: Albany, GA 

How would your friends and family describe you? Sweet, funny, caring and a perfectionist. 

What do you enjoy about your job? I enjoy being able to help people in their time of need, especially a group of people that tend to get overlooked when it comes to receiving mental health services. 

What do you enjoy about being a Knight? I love the sense of community that you experience here at UCF. Everyone is so helpful and friendly; you can’t help but enjoy being a Knight. 

Who inspires you at work? My supervisors and co-workers keep me inspired. Everyone I work with is so hardworking (and caring) that it motivates me to be the same way, not only at work but in my personal life as well. 


Thanks to staff members like Tara, we can continue reaching our collective potential. Their hard work and dedication to UCF inspires us all to Charge On.
