Yoselin Meza Miranda
Colorado Edition Host, General Assignment ReporterEmail: yoselin.mezamiranda@kunc.org
As a general assignment reporter, I stay on top of what is happening in our community and in our state. I make sure that my community in Northern Colorado can understand the information that I am delivering. I also host Colorado Edition and love to connect with listeners with knowing that they are choosing our station for the latest news and weather conditions.
Before starting with KUNC, I worked for MSU Denver’s “Noticiero TVMet” and “The Met Report”. This was my first hands on experience with broadcasting and news writing/producing. During my time at MSU I fell in love with journalism. I learned that I enjoyed talking to others, getting to know their story, and be their voice. I love storytelling. I graduated in May of 2021 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Broadcast Journalism and a minor in Spanish. As a Latinx journalist, I want my listeners to know I am here for them, whether it’s in English or Spanish.
In 2020 Noticiero TV Met and The Met Report was recognized by the Colorado Broadcasters Association and won Future Broadcasters Award.
When I’m not at work, I can usually be found hanging out with friends, eating, cooking new things, baking cakes, singing or listening to music in my room.
