You’ll see me weekend mornings on KRDO anchoring Good Morning Colorado at 6 and 8 a.m. I also do investigative and consumer reporting for TARGET 13.

I joined the NEWSCHANNEL 13 team in December 2009. Before coming to Colorado, I worked for two years at KAPP-TV in Yakima, WA. I was the main reporter for our popular “Trouble Shooter” segment, tackling a wide range of viewer problems. I helped a woman get the unemployment money she deserved, exposed a dangerous sewage leak at a local motel, and even helped round up some stray goats wandering in a neighborhood. I was also successful in getting people’s money back from fraudulent businesses, equaling thousands of dollars.

I was born and raised in New Jersey and majored in Electronic Media at The George Washington University. My passion for broadcasting began at a college internship at WTTG in Washington, DC, where I worked with the station’s investigative reporter. From there I spent three years in sunny Los Angeles and earned a Master’s Degree in Broadcast Journalism from the University of Southern California. While there I had a great time interning for The Today Show, helping with stories from the West Coast bureau of NBC News.

I love the healthy and active lifestyle here in Colorado! In my free time I enjoy being outdoors: running, hiking and playing tennis. I’ve completed a triathlon and two marathons (working to improve my times!). I’m also a novice snowboarder and am glad to have plenty of nearby places to improve my skills!

I’d love to hear any story idea that you have. You can contact me at l.watts@krdo.com
