Ellen was inducted into the Walter Cronkite School of Broadcast Journalism’s Hall of Fame in 2006 and is the recipient of an Impact Award for Excellence in Television from the National Hispanic Media Coalition. Most notably, serving as ABC7 team leader for AIDS Walk Los Angeles, being front and center of our Pride Parade, advocating for mental health services for underserved communities, and championing to help rescue dogs find their forever homes.
