A former network news correspondent, Diana Alvear is a Peabody award winning journalist and communications expert. 

Prior to pivoting to communications and storytelling at Verizon and LinkedIn, she was the main anchor at WJZY FOX 46 Charlotte, a top 25 TV market.

She was a Today Show correspondent based in LA, also filing for NBC Nightly News and MSNBC. Alvear won a prestigious Peabody Award for her story on college students who rely on food pantries.

As an ABC news correspondent, she kept her cool reporting in Japan as a huge aftershock interrupted her live shot. Alvear witnessed President Obama's historic speech on election night 2008 from the stands in Chicago's Grant Park, cried for the first and only time while live on air as the Chilean miners were rescued. She reported from a rooftop across from Westminster Abby as Kate Middleton became a princess. 

She published her first kids book, Sal Finds a Forever Home, based on her kitty Sal waiting in the shelter for a loving home. She has taught Muay Thai kickboxing. 

But her favorite role is mommy. She lives in NJ with her family, dogs and cats.
