Camille Ross is a first generation Canadian of Guyanese heritage. She is a recent graduate from the School of Journalism at Ryerson University.
Currently, when she is not out in the Guyanese community preparing Guyana Beat she works at CTV as a Story Producer with their National Morning Show Canada AM. Prior to working at CTV here in Toronto, she lived in Montreal for a couple of months completing an internship with the local news. Camille has always leaned toward television broadcasting but she built a foundation in print journalism. A long summer spent in the Toronto Star Newsroom as a reporter monitoring crime across the city helped her get a feel for the industry. Her very first reporting job was with a popular Caribbean community newspaper- The Indo-Caribbean World. As a young reporter, Camille was given an opportunity to jump right in to the Guyanese community in Toronto. Week after week she covered events, reviewed films and theatre, interviewed prestigious guests including the first lady of Guyana and more.
