Tess Rafols
Weekend Anchor, Reporter
Tess Rafols wakes you up with a smile as the anchor/host of the top-rated weekend show "Good Morning! Arizona." You can also see her bring live breaking-news and other reports weekday mornings."
The Southern California native joined Arizona's family in January 2005 after anchoring the weekday morning shows at WTOL in Toledo, Ohio, and KEYT-TV in Santa Barbara, Calif. She began her career reporting 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. But her "forte" if you will, is covering stories that touch people's hearts and help those in need.
Tess loves being involved with community events, especially working with children's charities like the Boys and Girls Club and Stepping Stone of Hope. She graduated from the University of Southern California with a bachelor's degree in broadcast journalism.
Tess' proudest moment is the birth of her triplets last year! Tess loves being a mom to Cooper, Jaxon and Zoey, who are now healthy, rowdy toddlers. The babies have their own personal bodyguards -- the family dogs, Labrador retrievers Chance and Cleveland.
When she’s not chasing down the news of the day or chasing her kids, Tess enjoys reading, cooking, exploring the Valley of the Sun and spending time with family and friends.
