Marisa Oberle, Multimedia Journalist
Hi everyone-- Thanks for clicking on my name to learn a bit more about me!
I joined ABC57 News in January 2018. I could not be more excited to start my reporting career in South Bend.
I’m a proud alumna of the E.W. Scripps School of Journalism at Ohio University. I graduated with a degree in Broadcast Journalism in December 2017. I also have specializations in marketing and management.
During my time at Ohio University, I worked for WOUB-TV. At WOUB, I reported, anchored, and produced for the station’s noon and evening newscasts. I also completed reporting internships at WKBN-TV in Youngstown, Ohio, WISH-TV in Indianapolis, Indiana, and WBNS-TV in Columbus, Ohio during my undergraduate career.
I was born and raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. With that being said, I’m very proud to call myself a “Yinzer”-- I love anything made out of steel or colored black and gold. The people I grew up around sparked my interest in journalism. The people of Pittsburgh have a certain “color” to them, and I loved listening, reading, and watching each person’s story.
With that being said, I think each person has a unique story that deserves to be told. I love telling stories in a way that allows me to establish a relationship and connect with each viewer. I want to know what viewers, meaning you, want to see. What do you care about? If you want to share, please send me an email at moberle@abc57.com, message me on Facebook or Twitter! Feel free to reach out to me if you just want to say hello as well!
Outside of work, I love to travel. I’m excited to visit the beaches in Southwest Michigan! I’m also passionate about healthy eating and exercising, so you can probably find me cooking or lifting.
