While serving as mayor, Ellis was one of the Charleroi officials who worked along with officials of Speers and North Charleroi Boroughs and consultants and officials of the State Department of Economic and Community Development and the Washington County Redevelopment Authority and California University of PA internship program to transform the Charleroi Police Department into the Charleroi Regional Police Department. The formation of the Regional Police Department enabled the communities to continue to provide full-time police protection to the residents. Because the communities regionalized, they were provided the opportunity to receive many grants that would not have been available had they not regionalized.

In August, Ellis was part of a committee that organized a police appreciation day for the Charleroi regional area. The Committee was named “Team Rex” in honor of Charleroi’s K-9 Officer Rex, and all proceeds, which totaled approximately $3,800, were donated to the K-9 fund.

Ellis implemented the junior mayor program for the Borough, which provided senior students of Charleroi area the opportunity to be involved in the workings of the mayor’s office and the borough operations. Ellis also participated in the American Legion Student Government Day Program. Another program she initiated was bringing a low cost spay-neuter cat clinic to the Borough. The clinic was operated in conjunction with the Fluffy Jean Fund and Animal Friends of Pittsburgh.

Ellis served as a member of the Charleroi Area Veterans Council parade committee. She also organized the Hometown Heroes banner committee, which has provided family members an opportunity to have their veterans’ pictures and information displayed on a telephone in the town.

She has worked for various capacities for the state of PA, including the Departments of Corrections, Revenue, Transportation, and the Auditor General. Ellis also worked as a graduate assistant at California University of PA and as a legislative intern and assistant.

Ellis graduated from Charleroi High School and later attended and graduated from California University of PA, majoring in urban affairs. She later returned to pursue additional credits towards a Master’s Degree in geography and regional planning. She also holds a legal assistant certification from Robert Morris University and attended Duquesne University’s paralegal institute for additional credits in employment law.
