Marielle Mohs is thrilled to be telling stories in her home state of Minnesota. She grew up in Eden Prairie and South Minneapolis.
Marielle switched to sports reporting full-time in 2023, covering all sports at all levels, but puts a big emphasis on covering women's sports. She has a weekly digital segment called "WoMN in Sports" highlighting the accomplishments of Minnesota athletes, coaches and leaders.

While in St. Louis, she got to cover the 100th PGA Championship and the St. Louis Blues winning the Stanley Cup in 2019, both were career highlights!
Marielle began her career after college in Little Rock, Arkansas at KTHV. She started as a producer and quickly transitioned to a reporter, then investigative reporter and then weekend evening anchor.
But Marielle's humble beginnings are some of her favorite jobs to date, which include scooping ice cream at Sebastian Joe's in high school and serving buckets of fries at the Fresh French Fries stand at the Minnesota State Fair during her summer breaks in college.
Marielle loves skiing, both water and snow. She went to college at the University of Denver, so she could ski every weekend in the winter.
She also enjoys taking improv classes in her free time, and attending shows at improv theaters around the Twin Cities.
Most people call Marielle "Elle," so you may hear that while watching WCCO
