The Ivy Tech Foundation recently hosted its annual Distinguished Alumni Awards ceremony recognizing 19 honorees statewide. Of those nominees was Evansville alumna, Lynda Gamroth.
Lynda Gamroth is a 2006 graduate of Ivy Tech Evansville with an associate of applied science in Visual Communication and Photography. With her degree from the Evansville campus, Gamroth turned a lifelong hobby into a lucrative grassroots business bringing joy to couples and families across the Midwest with stunning photography of their special days. Gamroth never wavered from her goals. She now instills that persistence and optimism in others.
Since 1998, The Distinguished Alumni Award has celebrated the success of Ivy Tech Community College alumni by recognizing a group of graduates who have made a lasting, positive contribution to the community, state or College since completing their education. As the highest honor alumni can receive, the Award is designated for individuals with outstanding professional, philanthropic or volunteer accomplishments.
“Ivy Tech has seen tremendous success throughout the past 56 years, this is due in great part to the successes of our alumni,†said John M. Murphy, Ivy Tech Foundation president. “We have honored over 250 Distinguished Alumni who have made valuable contributions in their communities and have been exceptional in their professional careers. They are excellent examples of what can happen when desire and opportunity intersect.â€
