Biography

Elisa is currently vice president of programmes and operations at People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), since joining in 2010.

She plays a central role in driving the organisation’s campaigns, public outreach, and communication work.

In her work, Elisa oversees much of the organisation’s public-facing work on behalf of animals across the UK, Ireland, and beyond.

She leads strategic campaigns that rely on bold storytelling, high-impact demonstrations, and creative advocacy to bring animal issues into the public eye - and to advance PETA’s message that “animals are not ours to experiment on, eat, wear, or use for entertainment.”  

Elisa is also a frequent media commentator, appearing on television and radio programmes - from the BBC to LBC - to debate furriers, circus owners, hunters, and others who harm animals.
