Okelo Pena

Over the past five years at ABC News, I’ve worked across the assignment desk and Good Morning America as an Associate Segment Producer, supporting live national broadcasts and breaking news coverage during overnights and weekends

My experience spans booking, story development, and newsroom coordination, working closely with producers, writers, and field teams to bring accurate, timely stories to air under tight deadlines.

I bring a strong foundation in news-gathering, writing, editing, and storytelling, shaped by years in a fast-paced network newsroom. My work is driven by a commitment to responsible journalism and using the platform of national news to amplify underrepresented voices and inform audiences with clarity and integrity.
