Moeller has made a name for��herself as a five-time Emmy-nominated senior producer at E! Entertainment��Television,��who now��works��as a producer at Entertainment Tonight.

“Back in high school, I used to watch all the red carpets and read all the entertainment magazines,” she explained. “I knew I wanted to work in entertainment television, and I knew �þ��� had one of the best schools for communications in the country.”

Recognizing that Elon was the perfect fit for her academic and personal aspirations, it became clear that she had to attend. Upon arriving at the school, Moeller dove right into her classes and even picked up a minor she had never considered.

“I majored in broadcast communications and minored in theater arts because I was told the Theatre Arts minor would be helpful with an on-camera presence,” she said. “My junior year in 2007, I studied abroad in London, and I now credit an entire career in entertainment news, due to Elon helping me acquire an internship abroad.”

Moeller remembers Elon asking her to choose her top three companies she would want to work for in London, and E! Entertainment was her first pick. With Elon’s help, she secured exactly what she’d hoped for.

The initial internship with E! during her London study abroad changed her trajectory for the better.

“I kept in touch with the London office, so when I did Elon’s inaugural ‘Elon in LA’ program in the summer of 2008, I was able to land my second internship at E!,” she explained. “One week after graduation in 2009, I moved back to LA without a job. I hustled and kept in touch with the E! team, getting my first paying gig with them in 2010, working in the international department, all thanks to my first internship in London.”

Moeller��made the��switch��from��the��international��department��to��the��domestic department at E! News and then rose through the ranks, from intern to senior producer.��Over��her��15��years at��E!��News,��she��was nominated for five Emmy Awards,��and��interviewed people��like��Steve Carell,��Charlize Theron and��50 Cent. She also had the��privilege��of��working��on��the��red carpet at the��Oscars and Golden Globes.

“I think one thing��that’s��gotten me far in this business is realizing celebrities are��just normal��people too, and they want to be treated that way,” she explained.����“When working with and writing scripts for celebs and hosts,��I’ve��always had success connecting with them on a personal level and not treating them like royalty.����They will always feel more comfortable around people who treat them normally��and��give them honest feedback, good or bad.”

Moeller��credits��her continued success��to��strong relationships with her coworkers,��interviewees, and��former hosts,��always��keeping in��contact��with them even after some of their shows had ended.

When reflecting on her favorite experiences so far in her career, she recalls being able to work on one of the��biggest��pop��culture stages as a top moment.

“I��recently worked the Golden Globes red carpet this year with our host Keltie Knight, and it was my first time doing a major awards show red carpet; we were positioned right at the limo drop where we saw all the celebs exiting their cars,��like George and Amal Clooney, Julia Roberts,��and��Leslie Mann,��to name a few.”

This��unforgettable��experience solidified for��her��that she was in the right career.
Another memorable project was producing live coverage for��Kobe Bryant’s memorial service in 2020, outside of the Staples��Center.

“It was just me, my host Will��Marfuggi, and��a cameraman. We were reporting live from downtown LA, getting footage and statements of the fans showing up to mourn his death.����It was a surreal experience to be in the presence of that historic moment,” she said.

Moeller’s��journey��at��E! News was marked by steady growth��in��leadership, as she took on a variety of roles throughout her time at the company. When E! News was cancelled in September 2025, she unexpectedly lost her job. However, the strong professional relationships she had built over the years quickly became a source of support and��opportunity.

“One��meaningful connection I made along the way was with Jerry O’Connell,��who at the time was��hosting ‘The Talk.’ After our interview, he followed me on Instagram and has been a huge supporter of my career ever since. When E! News was cancelled in��September,��we went out to lunch to talk through opportunities and strategies. He even reposted my Instagram announcement when I shared that I had landed a new job at Entertainment Tonight,”��said Moeller.

Building on her professional network, she transitioned from a freelance role at Entertainment Tonight in October to a full-time position��in January of this year. She credits this milestone to her connections and a pivotal, “game-changing” internship in London.

Elon’s��top-notch��curriculum and amazing professors helped��her��feel��prepared��for the real��world, knowing she��could succeed outside the classroom.��Elon’s study abroad center helped many students,��including��Moeller, afford transformative international experiences. Opening doors to life-changing internships and meaningful global connections while abroad.

Moeller��has come a long way��through��courage and perseverance,��and now she works��for a nine-time Emmy Award-winning nationwide��show.

“This business,��especially��out��in LA, is 100% about who you know, but it’s how good you do that��is what��keeps you there,” she��explained.

“My main advice is to take the internships, do the study abroad, make the connections, and always��keep in contact with people and never burn bridges,” she said. “You never know who’s��going to��end up where and who can help you down the line. And when��you’re��on top, know that it can always change in an instant, so always be kind to the people below you,��as��one day you may be working for them.”

Results from the February 2026 exam were released Wednesday, April 1, by the . Elon Law’s result far exceeds the statewide first-time passage rate of 74.78% and the school’s previous high of 82%, set by Elon Law’s charter class in 2009.

The Class of 2025’s success reflects a sustained, school-wide focus on �þ���, preparation, and student support, all aimed at helping graduates succeed not only on the bar exam, but in their legal careers.

“This is what Elon Law is all about,” said Zak Kramer, dean of Elon Law. “We’re in the dream-making business. The better our students perform, the faster they can begin making an impact as lawyers.”

An upward trajectory

In recent years, faculty and staff have aligned around the mission of excellence on the bar exam. They adopted a new motto and mindset: “One and Done.”

The gains are striking. First-time passage has climbed from 52.8% for the Class of 2021 to 91.96% for the Class of 2025, with steady increases along the way, including 79.4% for the Class of 2023, and 73.5% for the Class of 2024.

These efforts are part of a broader vision. Elon Law’s faculty continuously refine how they teach for real-world lawyering. The school’s 2.5-year J.D. program accelerates students’ path to the profession — with a December graduation and February bar exam — while reducing the cost of a legal education. Recognized nationally for practical training with an A+ rating from PreLaw Magazine, Elon Law prepares graduates to enter the profession with confidence and experience.

“We’re so proud of our students who took the bar,” said Jenny Lane, assistant dean for academic success. “We gave them the mission, ‘Commit, complete, conquer,’ and that’s exactly what they did.”

With its highest bar pass rate in recent history and a multi-year trend of steady growth, Elon Law is on a sustained upward trajectory.

“Big things are happening at Elon Law,” Kramer said, “and we’re just getting started.”

About Elon Law

Elon Law is the preeminent school for engaged and experiential learning in law. With a focus on learning by doing, it integrates traditional classroom instruction with a required residency-in-practice field placement for all full-time students during the winter or spring of their second year. The law school’s distinctive full-time curriculum provides a logically sequenced program of professional preparation and is accomplished in 2.5 years, which offers exceptional value by lowering tuition and permitting graduates early entry into their careers.

Elon Law has graduated nearly 2,000 alumni since opening its doors in downtown Greensboro in 2006. Its annual enrollment now tops 500 students. The law school is regularly featured in PreLaw Magazine’s “Best Schools for Practical Training” rankings, maintaining a Top 10 placement and an A+ rating each year since 2023. Elon Law was also among schools highlighted by Bloomberg Law in 2023 for its innovative approach to student development.

�þ��� has applied to the American Bar Association to open a full-time, 2.5-year J.D. program in Charlotte beginning in fall 2027. The Elon Law Flex Program, a part-time, in-person program of legal study, launched there in 2024. Designed for students balancing work, family and other commitments to earn their J.D. in under four years, it enrolled its second cohort in fall 2025.

At �þ���, she majored in��environmental and��ecological��science and minored in��statistics,��laying��the foundation for her career in public service.

“I found Elon while I was touring colleges in the South, and if I’m honest, what initially captivated me was the beautiful campus,” says��Nighswander. “It was quaint, but not too small, and I��immediately��felt comfortable there. I also learned that they offered the environmental science program I was interested in, as well as plenty of extracurricular activities, so it was��a pretty easy��choice.”

Once on campus, Nighswander immersed herself in student life and began shaping her sense of self, playing on the women’s rugby club��team��and working as a referee for Elon’s �þ��� Recreation intramurals program all four years.

Beyond extracurricular involvement, Elon also nurtured her academic and professional growth.

“I received a scholarship through the Elon College Fellows program, which gave me financial aid as well as a program that really helped me succeed at Elon,” she said. “The program itself was fairly rigorous, and I credit the academic standards and research requirements for starting me on the path that got me into graduate school and ultimately, my career at the EPA.”

Through the Elon College Fellows program, she spent her junior and senior years conducting �þ��� research on��wetland��ecology, an experience that sparked her passion for��environmental��research.

She continued her education at the University of Florida, earning her master’s degree while discovering a new passion for CrossFit and the��strong sense��of community it fostered. After graduating in 2019, she moved back to Washington, D.C., to live with her parents and begin her job search. When COVID-19 upended those plans, she adapted, taking on side gigs and consulting work while also �þ��� CrossFit once gyms reopened.

“I met some members��at CrossFit��who worked at the EPA. I had told them��that��I��really wanted to work there, and they sent me a few positions that were hiring,” she said.��“The positions were in the Office of Pesticide Programs,��which��I��wasn’t��sure I was qualified for since I had��very little��knowledge about pesticides,” she explained. “When I interviewed, I��leveraged��my experience with statistics, entomology, and data analytics, and was lucky enough to get hired and start working there by the end of 2020.”

Today, her work at the EPA��remains��fast-paced, with priorities shifting quickly and requiring constant adaptability. “I work in pesticide regulation, and more specifically, I manage both public and proprietary pesticide usage data and analyze said data as part of assessing the benefits and risks of a given pesticide active ingredient,” Nighswander said.

Her time at Elon continues to influence her professional approach.

“My experience conducting research at Elon helped me a lot. It helped refine my skills in developing and testing hypotheses, technical��writing and public speaking,” she said.

She is especially energized by projects that blend science and technology.

“My favorite project currently is using a mapping software called ArcGIS to develop Pesticide Use Limitation Areas (PULAs) to protect endangered species from pesticide exposure,” Nighswander said.

Her career as a public servant has been��complex, but she explains that it also makes her work rewarding.

“What gets me to work every day is knowing that I am working to help protect human health and the environment. I have always wanted to have a successful career where I can still balance my love for the environment.��At��the��same time,��I��also��must��make members of the industry, the��general public, and environmental groups happy, which is��very challenging,” she explained.

The past year has brought��additional��demands amid broad changes across the federal workforce. Even so, she feels grateful to remain in her role and grounded in the purpose behind her work to safeguard the environment.

Looking back, Nighswander offers simple but powerful advice to her younger self: “Know that you have all the tools you need to be successful. You��don’t��have to be the smartest kid in the class or the loudest voice. Just trust your instincts, love yourself, and��you’ll��find your way.”

She approaches the future with the same openness. “I have no idea where I will be in my future, and I kind of love that,” she said. “There��was a period last year where every week, I was worried if I would still have a job. A year later, I am still here, serving the public, and I am grateful for that. I trust myself enough to know when it is time to move on and make a change, and I am sure that time will come, but for now, I am enjoying the work that I do.��The uncertainty, while scary at times, can be the most beautiful part of life.”

While much of the marketing world is obsessed with algorithms, Weickert focuses on the “science and soul” of human interaction. Her work aims to combat the modern “loneliness epidemic” by creating spaces that foster psychological safety,��trust and a genuine sense of belonging.

“In today’s world, people aren’t buying the product anymore,” Weickert explains. “They are buying identity and how a brand makes them feel. That’s the future of experiential.”

Her��expertise��has earned her��a spot on��the��2024��Women We Admire’s Top 50 Women Leaders in North Carolina, a testament to her influence��on the up-and-coming industry.

“There’s��not a ton of experiential representation in our state, so it was nice to put our agency and our industry on the��map,”��she��said.

Weickert’s��reach extends globally��as well��through her work with the World Experience Organization, where she collaborates with fellow creators to design experiences that��connect��people.

“Experiences are the best form of ads and will be the only channel that matters in a world that is being inundated with AI, mistrust, a loneliness epidemic and a��polycrisis,” she��said.

Her��rise to the top of the experiential marketing world began with a deep-seated curiosity about��the human��experience. Her career started in��traditional��advertising,��where��she quickly became exposed to the greater marketing ecosystem. Seeing��all��the many��facets��of marketing allowed her to find��her true��calling in experiential��work.

“There was something soulful about��experiential��marketing;��it was much deeper than a human being exposed to a digital ad on the��screen,��and I��was drawn to��that,” she said.��“I felt instantly connected to this idea of using brand stories as a powerful tool to create��connection��and belonging amongst strangers.”

Weickert’s��career was heavily influenced by her��experience��at Elon.��She credits her classes at Elon��for helping��her thrive in her current role.

“My Business Communications class and my Public Speaking class both taught me how to effectively communicate with others in a concise yet compelling way, with lessons that I still use in my current role today,” she said.

Winter Term ended up being one of the most meaningful parts of her experience at Elon, especially due to one class centered on Woodstock.

“My Winter Term class��explored the music surrounding the Woodstock era, both the cultural and artistic influences that��led up��to it and the ones that emerged in its wake,” she said. “What struck me most about the class was how deeply it invited us to reflect on the creative act itself. It��taught me the biggest��lesson above all: to always engage in experiences that leave you inspired, stay curious about the human experience, and expand your world into new realms of thinking.”

That mindset has stuck with her, and she now makes a point to seek out experiences that spark inspiration and bring those insights into her everyday work. Her work as head of strategy at��XD Agency��involves working with her team to discover��“how people make sense of the world and turn it into category-shifting advantages for brands,”��she explains.

Her job��also��consists of��constant travel and high-pressure environments. For Weickert,��she��maintains��a level head��with a��disciplined sense of gratitude, reminding herself how lucky she is to��feel tired from a long week of��traveling the world��and how fortunate she is to meet unexpected��people��around the globe.��She also looks to stay��present��through��mid-day meditation or simply appreciating the��moments.

Weickert points to one standout project as her favorite: Camp��Poosh��at��the��2025��Coachella��Festival,��created for Kourtney Kardashian Barker’s brand��Poosh.

The team transformed a massive Palm Desert estate into something entirely immersive, blending “color, texture, sound, nostalgia, and ritual” to create a space that tapped into what people crave most: novelty,��belonging, and pleasure.��What made the event especially memorable for Weickert was its carefully crafted sensory journey, which Weickert was a main part of creating.��Guests flowed through an environment filled with contrasts,��moving between workout classes, cold plunges, sound baths, DJ sets, and late-night celebrations that blurred self-care with nightlife.

“The brain loves contrast, so we leaned into it,” she explained, highlighting how each moment was designed to keep energy and engagement high. That philosophy culminated in a surprise performance by Heidi Montag, which, “turned the entire house electric.” The result was a perfectly balanced experience: “wellness that didn’t feel preachy” and “indulgence that didn’t feel guilty,” capturing what she calls a seamless blend��of inscape and��escape.

Her advice for those��following in her footsteps?��Put down the��phone and��connect with others.

“The only way you can understand what it means to be human is by exposing yourself to things that fundamentally make us human,” she said.

Weickert emphasizes the importance of prioritizing time outdoors to stay grounded. As algorithms increasingly shape our digital lives, it is essential to nurture a curiosity for the physical world, enabling us to become better communicators.

While in the city, the ensemble also had the opportunity to meet with Elon alumni currently performing on Broadway.

During the week, students attended performances of “Aladdin” and “The Book of Mormon.” Alumni currently performing in the productions took time to meet with the students after the shows to share stories of their experiences on Broadway.

Michael Callahan ‘13 and Campy Rodriguez ‘26 welcomed one group of students following the March 10 performance of “Aladdin” for photos and a backstage tour. Callahan is cast as a swing — covering multiple ensemble roles, dance captain, fight captain and understudy to Iago and Omar. Rodriguez is making his Broadway debut as a henchman, ensemble member and understudy to Aladdin.

Callahan and Rodriguez gave the students a behind-the-scenes tour of the theatre, offering students a rare look backstage at the production. �þ��� were able to see props and technical elements used in the show and learn more about what it takes to bring the Broadway production to life each show.

“Getting to meet Michael and Campy made such a big city feel like a small world, knowing I had an Elon connection to people doing such amazing things on Broadway,” said Alana Driver ‘27, a flutist in the Wind Ensemble. “It was inspiring to hear about their journeys and see how their experiences at Elon helped lead them to where they are now. … Standing on the stage and realizing Elon alumni are part of what makes those productions possible was incredibly meaningful.”

Andrew Stevens Purdy ‘20 invited another group of students onto the stage for a photo following a March 10 performance of “The Book of Mormon” where he is making his Broadway debut in the ensemble cast.

“Meeting an Elon alumni on Broadway showed me that with hard work and perseverance, you can achieve the seemingly unattainable goals you set for yourself,” said Ian Wong ‘28, a flutist in the Wind Ensemble. “At one point, he was in the exact position I am in now —��a first-year student at Elon, striving to work hard and make a name for myself. Being able to go backstage and walk on a Broadway stage was an incredible experience. Seeing first-hand the complexity of the props, lighting and all the details that go into making a show run smoothly was really eye-opening.”

The Broadway shows were one of several experiences the Wind Ensemble enjoyed during their trip in New York City, culminating in their performance at Carnegie Hall, the first time an Elon ensemble has performed at the venue.

The alumni were excited for the opportunity to meet current Elon students and share a part of their world with them.

“I had a wonderful time meeting this group of Elon students and, hopefully, helped them bridge the gap between dream and reality in some small way,” Callahan said. “I remember the Elon alumni who were, and still are, resources for me as I graduated and pursued a career in New York City. I’m honored to pay it forward.”

More than 130 students gathered in Snow Family Grand Atrium on March 3 for the Communications and Sport Management Meet & Greet, an event designed to connect Elon students with industry professionals, internship opportunities and career insights.

Hosted in partnership with the Student Professional Development Center and the School of Communications, the event brought together employers from across the communications and sport industries. Representatives from organizations including APCO, Capitol Broadcasting Company, Carolina Core FC, SportsMEDIA Technology and the Burlington Sock Puppets met with students interested in exploring career paths and building their professional networks.

A defining feature of this year’s event was the strong presence of Elon alumni, who participated both in person and virtually to mentor current students and share insights from their professional journeys.
