Jenna Wells, Reporter

Jenna started as a reporter at CBS 58 in April 2022. Since then, she has fallen in love with Milwaukee, and the vibrancy, culture, and community offered throughout the Brew City.

She covers a little bit of everything, and most enjoys reporting on community events, animals, advocacy, and arts/culture. You can often find her long-form, positive pieces on the CBS 58 Sunday Morning program.

Jenna came to Milwaukee from Duluth, Minnesota, where she was the anchor of CBS 3 This Morning and a reporter for CBS 3/KBJR 6, now known as Northern News Now. While in Duluth, she covered several high-profile stories, including the death of George Floyd and corresponding protests, major snowstorms, and presidential visits.

Jenna began her career in New Bern, North Carolina as a producer for WCTI-TV. In 2018, she covered Hurricane Florence, which made landfall in the same town.

Jenna grew up just past the 'Cheddar Curtain' in Gurnee, Illinois (and yes, she worked at Six Flags!)
She graduated from Illinois State University in 2018 with a B.A. in Journalism. As a Redbird, Jenna was part of the TV-10 news program, which equipped her with the knowledge to start her career.

When Jenna isn't working, you can find her at the many restaurants, bars, breweries, and beaches Milwaukee has to offer, often with her husband and two pups.
