Meet Ella, an energetic, em—dash addicted creative, multimedia producer + social-first storyteller.

She also makes breakfast for dinner, because eggs makes everything better (duh).

Ella is known for her out-of-the-box approach to short and long-form storytelling in both hard news and news-adjacent spaces, bringing "Let's Get Into It" to ABC News, the network's first-ever social explainer series. Ella has pitched and produced over 150 pieces (and counting), breaking down everything from the fentanyl epidemic to the FTX flop. 

Previously, Ella brought USC's Health and Wellness desk to life, writing a weekly column and interviewing experts and advocates to de-stigmatize the loneliness epidemic. She went on to anchor USC's Annenberg TV News where she hosted "Ellavate" a mental health franchise to address the unfolding crisis on campus, during which she also had experiences working for Jessica Yellin's News Not Noise Network, goop, Thrive Global, and on the assignment desk at KABC. 

She is currently based in the concrete jungle (but is bi-coastal at heart). One might find her on New York City sidewalks, talking to one-too-many subway strangers, practicing hot yoga, or laughing with her friends — mocktail in hand.
