A child of Eritrean immigrants, Elen Tekle was born in Tucson, Arizona. Growing up, she watched little TV, for her parents didn’t want her to be raised by the screen. Ironically, she now wants to pursue a career in television. She hopes to create content that is more reflective of her community, and today she thanks her parents for all their support in achieving her BFA degree.
