Jessica Robb

Videographer

Jessica Robb was welcomed to the Global Lethbridge team in March 2021.

Born and raised in Edmonton, she was very excited to experience southern Alberta.

Graduating from MacEwan University with a Bachelor of Communications with a major in journalism in June 2019, Jessica joined the Global Edmonton team later that month as an Editorial Assistant.

Starting her career at Global Edmonton provided Jessica with unique opportunities and valuable experience. She was part of a national team that worked to identify victims from flight PS752 hours after the crash on Jan. 8, 2020. She is also no stranger to breaking news. Jessica was working on the assignment desk the night of a bus rollover at the Columbia Icefields in Jasper in July 2019 and was part of the planning that ensured a team was on scene within hours.

Branching into broadcast, Jessica hopes to provide a safe space for people to share their stories. Her proudest accomplishment is telling the story of 15-year-old Roderica Ribbonleg, a murdered Indigenous girl from northern Alberta, and the 127-kilometre Walk for Justice held in her honor.

Outside of work, Jessica is an avid runner and soccer player. She will stop to pet every dog and never says no to an oat milk latte.
