Nicole Nielsen has joined KPRC 2 in Houston as a multimedia journalist (MMJ), mikemcguff.com has confirmed.
“As if I wasn’t far enough South, you’ll now find me on @KPRC2 in Houston,” Nielsen posted on social media.
While Nielsen let us know about the KPRC move publicly, I have confirmed she will serve in an MMJ role.
Earlier this week, I reported that Nielsen departed her position at CBS News Texas (KTVT) in the Dallas-Fort Worth market in early March 2026, where she worked as a reporter, multi-skilled journalist (MSJ), fill-in anchor, and traffic anchor.
Nielsen joined the CBS 11 news team in June 2020.
A graduate of the University of Oklahoma, Nielsen earned her degree summa cum laude. During her time there, she served as a Journalism School ambassador and contributed to the university’s daily newscast. She also received multiple awards for her on-air presence and reporting from the Broadcast Education Association and the National Broadcasting Society.
Nielsen’s previous experience includes internships with CBS News Texas, WFAA 8, CheddarU, and a news apprenticeship with News 9 KWTV in Oklahoma City.
