Try Mass Comm Week: Paths, Challenges, & Advice from TXST Alums

In this special edition of Try @ TXST, we bring together four talented TXST alums who have forged their paths in media, marketing, journalism, and tech. Hosted by Giselle Kowalski and Dale Blasingame, associate professor of practice in the School of Journalism and Mass Community, listen as we sit down with:

  • Hailey Aaron, assistant media planner at RPA
  • Jonathan Campbell, software engineer at 2K
  • Allison Ralston, senior associate at INK Communications
  • Ezekiel Ramirez, multimedia journalist at KRHD Bryan/College Station
These Bobcats share how their experiences at TXST shaped their careers, the challenges of transitioning from student life to the professional world, and how they’ve been able to adapt in an ever-changing industry (especially as AI reshapes the landscape). From early lessons to finding motivation in their 9-to-5s, this fantastic conversation is packed with valuable advice and inspiration for anyone exploring a career in mass communications and beyond.
