Heidi Goitia is a two-time Emmy-winning journalist, producer, and co-host of ABC15's Sonoran Living.
An Arizona native, she decided in middle school she wanted a career in journalism, earned a broadcast degree from Northern Arizona University, and started as evening anchor at KNAZ in Flagstaff. She moved to Phoenix and worked her way from associate producer to morning-news anchor, spending a decade at KTVK and KPHO. She won a 2020 Emmy for morning-show anchor and a second the following year for breaking-news reporting.
She stepped away from television in 2021 to be more available to her youngest child, then returned to Sonoran Living to cover the stories and businesses that make Arizona special.
