My name is Elizabeth Collins, though most people call me Libby, and I’m from Phoenix, Arizona. I’m a senior at the University of Pennsylvania studying Communications and Consumer Psychology, driven by a lifelong passion for storytelling that informs, engages, and inspires.

At 10 years old, I stood outside The Today Show with a homemade sign, captivated by the energy of live television and the way stories could connect people. Since then, I’ve immersed myself in media, exploring how journalism, entertainment, and digital content shape public discourse and cultural narratives.

At Penn, I co-founded POV – Penn on Video, the university’s first student-centric news show. In this role, I produce and host video segments that examine global and local issues through the lens of the Penn community, blending on-camera reporting, video editing, and digital strategy. Beyond POV, I’ve written for The WALK Magazine, analyzed television content at the Annenberg Public Policy Center, and interned at the Pew Research Center and a Broadway production company in New York—gaining experience across content creation, audience engagement, and strategic storytelling.

I thrive at the intersection of journalism, media, entertainment, and marketing, where storytelling isn’t just about information—it’s about impact. Whether through video production, editorial work, or creative strategy, I aim to craft content that captivates audiences, challenges perspectives, and sparks conversation.
