There is much to be said for listening more than you speak. And while Arielle Clay has built a career off of speaking clearly and commanding the attention of thousands, she prefers the role of audience, interviewer and listener. Unabashedly inquisitive, Arielle always has a question and is constantly learning. This curiosity served her well in her TV news career that spanned more than 10 years and continues to aid her as she passionately pursues acting and hosting.

Arielle is currently represented by Level Talent Group in Tampa, FL. Her resume includes commercial work with Spectrum, OxiClean and The Florida Visitor’s Bureau. Arielle has also been handpicked to host globally distributed education modules for cybersecurity company ISC2.

When not out on an audition, Arielle stays busy co-managing the Modern Mold Agency. Being raised by a small business owner, the entrepreneurial spirit was planted in Arielle early in life. It took root and bloomed in 2017 leading her to co-found the boutique public relations firm which specializes in brand management, social media management, communications strategy, video content creation and image consulting. Arielle uses her knowledge of the media industry to help clients craft their brands, prepare for interviews and develop PR strategies. Arielle also serves as the personal and corporate stylist for the firm.

Before taking a hiatus from TV news, the hard hitting journalist and charismatic television host worked as the Breaking News Anchor for ABC 33/40 News in her hometown, Birmingham, AL. In the challenging role she delivered live, breaking updates to the morning news audience, in many cases, as they were happening. Before anchoring in Birmingham, her journey in journalism also took her to Raleigh-Durham, NC and Augusta, GA.

Arielle has expertly tackled a variety of roles in the newsroom from producer to weekend anchor, chyron operator to bureau chief. She’s also been honored to cover local stories that made national headlines including the Alabama April 27th Tornadoes and the BP Gulf Oil Spill.

Arielle currently lives in Atlanta, GA with her husband. She enjoys working out, reading, attending University of Miami football games and shopping. She also loves traveling and takes every opportunity she can to visit new cities both in the states and internationally. Arielle has been fortunate enough to visit several countries and see many wonders of the world including, Machu Picchu, The Taj Mahal, the Colosseum, Stonehenge and the Leaning Tower of Pisa.  Her adventures inspired the creation of Far & Away Magazine, a digital publication where she documents her experiences trotting the globe!
