User-Centered Design
Website for Texas Tech University Alumni ChapterThe Challenge
The San Antonio Alumni Chapter for Texas Tech University had a broken Wix website that had been abandoned by a volunteer who was unable to keep up with the demand. They needed a website to reflect their commitment to local community events, fundraising, and keeping the spirit of TTU alive and well in the San Antonio area.
The Solution
I reached out to the chapter president asking if I could volunteer to build a new WordPress website and continue the care of the site as a volunteer donation of my time. The result was a high-end, on-brand website that has been shared by the Alumni network as an example to follow.
My Fav Part
“I was so excited to connect with the San Antonio Alumni chapter. They’re a kind group of Red Raiders who carry the spirit forward! It was my honor to design this website and to continue to care for it even today! Wreck ’em! – Kori
From the President
“I met Kori in June 2022. We were contacted by Kori after she saw our original chapter website that was hosted by Squarespace. The old website was kept up to date the best I could, but our former site administrator moved out of state, and it was very hard to keep up. Kori offered to help us with a new website for our chapter, and it debuted the following month, July 2022, to overwhelming success. The Texas Tech Alumni Association in Lubbock, TX, called it one of the best chapter websites they had seen, and other chapters have asked Kori with help with their own.
The website has been one of chapter’s lifelines. We have used it to sell our 2023 Fiesta Medals, which was an overwhelming success, and also for registration for our 2022 and 2023 Golf Tournaments, which made registration so much easier and streamlined the process. With the help of Kori and the website, we have made the most money for scholarships the last year since I started helping with the chapter 10 years ago.”
