Ella Reily Knudsen

Ella Reily Knudsen is a public relations and marketing professional, content creator, photographer, and self-proclaimed Swiss Army knife who loves bringing ideas to life. Born in London and raised in Austin, Texas, Ella grew up surrounded by a city built on music, creativity, and community, all of which continue to shape the way she approaches her work.

Ella graduated summa cum laude from Texas State University, where she double majored in Public Relations and Musical Theatre. She is now pursuing her Master of Arts in Strategic Communication online at Texas State. Her experience spans agency marketing, social strategy, content creation, public relations, brand partnerships, photography, and live event operations, giving her the ability to jump between strategy and execution without missing a beat.

A lifelong lover of music, sports, and entertainment, Ella is especially drawn to work that puts her in the middle of the action. Alongside her marketing and communications experience, she works in live events, supporting everything from concerts and large-scale entertainment to corporate and private events. She thrives in fast-moving environments, loves being constantly on the go, and is usually happiest when no two days look exactly the same.

That same curiosity extends well beyond work. Ella has a lifelong goal of visiting every continent, yes, even Antarctica, and loves discovering new places, meeting new people, and finding the stories worth capturing along the way. Whether she’s behind a camera, developing a campaign, working an event, editing a video, or figuring out what needs to happen next, she brings equal parts creativity, adaptability, and get-it-done energy to the room.

Outside of work, you can usually find her at a concert, planning her next trip, taking entirely too many photos, wandering through a new neighborhood, or trying a cheese she’s never had before. She believes the best work comes from curiosity, collaboration, and being willing to try just about anything once.
