Marissa Sulek joined CBS News Chicago in January 2025. She was born and raised in Park Ridge and is grateful for the opportunity to report back home for the community she cares about the most.
Before Chicago, Marissa was a general assignment reporter in Nashville at WSMV. That's where she was nominated for Mid-South Emmy Awards for her reporting on the deadly flooding in rural Waverly, Tennessee where over 20 people lost their lives.
She also was one of the first reporters on the ground at The Covenant School where three students and three staff members lost their lives after a school shooting.
Marissa enjoys following up on state and local politics and spent a year in Tennessee covering the legislature. She also walked the streets of downtown Nashville with two members of the "Tennessee Three" after the state representatives were expelled from office and reinstated.
Before Nashville, Marissa was in the Quad City area and started at WQAD where she spent two years telling stories at the Illinois and Iowa state line.
Marissa is a graduate of Maine South High School and got her bachelor's in advertising at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. She religiously watches Illinois football and basketball games, trains for marathons, and walks her family's two white fluffy Great Pyrenees', Harry and Sally, around town.
