Ashley Johnson is joining Fox 26 KRIV from WPHL 17 in Philadelphia where she worked for Tribune morning show Eye Opener.

Johnson tweets she will be an entertainment correspondent and reporter for the Houston Fox owned and operated station.

The Philadelphia native got her start in the TV biz as a multi-media reporter for WPTZ the NBC affiliate serving Burlington, VT and Plattsburgh, NY.

According to her bio, Ashley attended the University of Pennsylvania where she dual majored in political science and communications. Later she earned a Master’s of Science in broadcast journalism from Northwestern’s Medill School of Journalism. Like 30 Rock's Kenneth Parcell, Johnson participated in the NBC Page program in New York City, where she worked for programs like The Suze Orman Show and Weekend Today.

I contacted Johnson for more information and will post it if I hear back from her.
