Paula Marcheschi
Director of Creative Services
KGO-TV | ABC7 Bay Area
ABC Owned Television Stations
As a Bay Area native, Paula Marcheschi grew up watching ABC7. In 1991, she went to work at her family’s favorite station, starting out as an intern in KGO-TV’s Programming Department. Paula has always had a passion for journalism and once she learned how to edit video, she was hooked on the TV business! After gathering experience in nearly every department from News to Marketing and even Accounting, Paula currently serves as the Director of Creative Services for ABC7 KGO-TV and the ABC Owned Television Stations. No stranger to hard work, Paula happily tackles any project that comes her way — promos to long-form premium content, graphic packages to set design. For her efforts, she’s won 9 regional Emmy awards. In her (minimal) spare time, Paula also supports the Bay Area arts scene and local sports — go, Dubs! Paula is entering her third term as a NATAS Governor, has served as Vice-Chair of the Awards Committee, and the Emmy Gala Chair. Paula still loves to edit.
