Gabriela Resto-Montero is a reporter/producer on the Upper East Side.
She moved to big, bad New York City from Colorado to pursue her dream of becoming a world-class journalist. Shortly after her arrival, she learned to pronounce Houston Street properly and that a box of $5 cereal is a bargain.
Prior to DNAinfo, Gabriela worked as a fact checker for the Nation, where she learned to conduct meticulous research. She's also worked as an intern and general assignment reporter at the Denver Post, the Greeley Tribune and was the Chips Quinn scholar at the Salinas Californian.
At the Tribune, she won an award for her coverage of breast cancer care in Colorado's immigrant community.
Gabriela graduated from the University of Colorado in 2008 with two degrees — one in journalism, the other in political science — just in time for the economic collapse.
Fun Fact: Gabriela has a passion for fly sneakers. Her current favorites are a pair of old-school Adidas high tops with black and blue speckled heels and white tops.
