Allison Ralston
Social Media Coordinator
After being in a few different roles in the Office of Communications & Marketing, Allison Ralston finds herself in the role of Social Media Coordinator and Community Manager of the Texas Tech social media channels, including Facebook, Twitter and others. She also handles the Emergency Communications Center and TechA!ert system, and develops content for various web presences across campus.
Previously, Allison has been in many different functions of the office. She started as a Media Relations Intern, moved on to a PR in New Media Intern, found herself working full time before graduation as the Web Content Developer and Writer when she developed content for Texas Tech Today Daily News, the monthly e-newsletter, as well writing features. After that she began handling media relations, and finding new and improved ways to increase coverage through new media channels. Needless to say she's worn quite a few hats in her short career.
Allison is a May 2010 graduate of Texas Tech with a Bachelor of Arts in Public Relations, with a minor in American Sign Language, and one of the biggest Red Raider fans you’ll ever meet. She enjoys learning about social media and how it is changing the world of communications. The Sugar Land native is an avid Twitter and Facebook user, explores other social networking Web sites and also writes a blog. When not taking the world of social media by storm, Allison enjoys spending time with her fiancé and their four pets, reading mystery novels and taking photos.
