Kelly Schlicht joined the WEAU 13 News team as a Reporter in July 2008. Born and raised in West Allis, WI, Kelly grew up in a house where the news was always on.
She attended the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and graduated in May 2008. At the UW, she was involved with The Daily Cardinal student newspaper, The Society of Professional Journalists, and the Broadcasting Club.
In the summer of 2006, Kelly fell in love with television news while interning at WISN 12 in Milwaukee. From there, she went on to intern at WKOW 27 in Madison. Kelly spent the summer of 2007 interning at ABC News Good Morning America in New York City.
Kelly came to WEAU 13 News from WISC 3 in Madison, where she spent her last semester in college working full-time as an On-Air Intern.
The Wisconsin Broadcasters Association chose her to present her senior thesis on Edward R. Murrow at its June 2008 conference.
Kelly spends her days off volunteering with the Boys & Girls Club of the Greater Chippewa Valley, running a video production program called “Lights, Camera…Action!”
When she’s not in the Chippewa Valley, she can be found at a Brewers game, or spending time with her family in Milwaukee. Kelly also enjoys reading, swimming, playing the violin and painting.
