Azalea “Ozzy” Mora announced she is leaving KAVU Victoria where she works as an evening news anchor and reporter.
UPDATE JUNE 2023
Ozzy Mora joins KLAS 8 Las Vegas
The bilingual Mora also anchors cut-ins for KVTX/KUNU which are Telemundo and Univision affiliates.
"I’m a huge believer in taking a moment for self-reflection," Mora tweeted. "I have been truly blessed. I thank the universe, life, family and my colleagues for all the love. I will be leaving KAVU as your anchor. I am so heartbroken by my decision to leave."
In a subsequent tweet, Mora says she is moving to anchor in Midland-Odessa. I hear Mora is joining Big 2 News - KMID. UPDATE: She is indeed joining Big 2 News KMID and FOX 24 News as an evening anchor for the Permian Basin.
The Los Angeles native started with KAVU in 2019.
Some readers might recognize Mora from her other television work too. In the last few years, she has hosted such shows as the CW's "Mysteries Decoded" and the Travel Channel's "Ghost Adventures."
Mora got her start in local TV news with 12NEWS KPNX Phoenix, Arizona where she was a social media producer/host/MMJ.
While in college, the University of La Verne grad also worked as an online assistant producer for KABC Los Angeles's On the Red Carpet Online. She also was a guest co-host for Breal.TV/Cypress Hill Online. That must have been an insane in the membrane experience!
Several of you have been asking. So, I will be an evening anchor for the Midland-Odessa area. ❤️ It worked out perfectly. God blessed me with many opportunities. I will able to continue anchoring, working on my masters degree and spend more time with my family. #midland #odessa pic.twitter.com/Zdxc37Ompk
