Texas State Technical College (TSTC) has hired a new communications specialist for its west Texas campuses.

Sarah Trocolli has been with TSTC for about a year, interning with them last spring. She graduated from Baylor in the fall and was offered a full-time job by the college after working for them as a contract hire during the summer. Trocolli has since moved to Abilene, where she is stationed for her job. Prior to moving, she had worked remotely.

Trocolli described her role with the college as their reporter. Her job is to gather stories about the campuses and students of TSTC in west Texas.

Trocolli grew up in Mineola, Texas. She graduated from Waco with a bachelor’s degree in journalism with a concentration in public relations, and a minor in environmental studies. She said one of the things she would want to stress to those looking for schooling is to consider technical schools as an option, considering the costs and job opportunity they can provide.

“I really love what I do,” Trocolli said. “I’m excited to bring a little bit of new life, new reath . ’m the first reporter we’ve had on the ground so I’m excited to kind of set the standard for that and really explore what that role means.”
