Wall Street Journal reporter Sabela Ojea has left after nearly six years to freelance.
She covered breaking financial news about U.S. corporations, with a focus on the retail industry and consumer goods companies.
Along with a colleague, she won a Best in Business award from the Society for Advancing Business Editing and Writing, or SABEW, for their 2023 feature “The Estée Lauder Family Built a Beauty Empire. A Succession Rift Threatens It.”
Before moving to the U.S., Sabela covered some of the biggest European retailers, luxury goods giants and banks, and often collaborated with WSJ colleagues in Southern Europe to cover Spanish politics.
Ojea began her career as a Reuters trainee correspondent and multimedia producer in Madrid, and has also lived in Paris and California. She holds bachelor’s degrees in journalism and humanities from the University Carlos III of Madrid.
