Allison Rodriguez joined 12News and the Today in AZ team in 2023.
She is a familiar face to Arizona viewers after covering the state for 12 years. She started her journalism career as an anchor and reporter in Yuma, where she covered stories across international and state lines.
She moved to Phoenix in 2013 where she joined ABC15. Mornings have been in Allison’s blood for much of her career. She was the weekend morning anchor when she first arrived in Phoenix and later reported and anchored weekdays on ABC15 Mornings.
Allison was born and raised in Chicago with her three siblings. She attended Columbia College Chicago, majoring in Journalism. While the Windy City may be her hometown, she and her husband now consider the Valley home.
She took a short break from the sun in 2019 when she moved to the Bay Area. During her time reporting and anchoring there, she covered some of the biggest stories of that time, including the PG&E power shut offs and wildfires.
Allison returned to Arizona to continue covering communities up and down our state in early 2020, from the Navajo Nation to the Mexico border. Allison is deeply connected to the people of Arizona and is excited to share their stories on 12News.
