Tess Rafols

Anchor/Reporter

3TV

Tess Rafols wakes up with you every weekend morning as the the anchor/host of highly-rated and popular "Good Morning! Arizona." You can also see her bring live breaking-news and other reports weekdays during "Good Evening! Arizona."

The Southern California native joined Arizona's family in January 2005 after anchoring the morning show at WTOL in Toledo, Ohio for several years. Before that, Tess anchored the morning news at KEYT-TV in Santa Barbara, California and covered stories for the Orange County News Channel.

This award-nominated journalist has covered all types of stories from an F-5 tornado to presidential elections to investigative reports on serial killers. But her "forte" if you will, is covering stories that touch people's hearts.

Tess loves being involved in the community, especially working with children's charities. She graduated from the University of Southern California with a bachelor's degree in broadcast journalism.

When she's not chasing down the news of the day, Tess enjoys reading, cooking, exploring the Valley of the Sun and spending time with family and friends.

But these days, she doesn't really have time to do anything else because she and husband Vic are busy changing diapers as the parents of triplets!

Cooper, Jaxon and Zoey came into the world in January 2009 -- a bit early -- but they are now growing and thriving. The babies have their own personal bodyguards -- the family dogs, labrador retrievers Chance and Cleveland.
