Pamela Prado is thrilled to call Fresno home, particularly because of the friendly people and sunny skies. She joined KSEE 24 News in December 2003 and currently co-anchors KSEE Sunrise Saturday and reports during the week.

Pamela covers a variety of stories that impact people throughout the Central Valley. You’ll frequently catch her reporting breaking news, crime, and human-interest stories.

In 2006, she won the prestigious Edward R. Murrow Award for a story about a woman who stands on an overpass above Highway 41, waving at passing cars, uplifting the spirits of people passing by.

Raised in Anchorage, Alaska, Pamela has learned to appreciate all Mother Nature has to offer. However, after having several feet of snow piled on her car and staring down moose in her front yard, she decided to head for warmer weather. Pamela began her trek south, settling in Seattle, where she graduated from the University of Washington. During that time, she reported for the UW Daily, interned at KCPQ TV, and was a news assistant at KOMO TV. After graduation, Pamela began reporting for KNDO TV, the NBC affiliate in Yakima, Washington. You’d frequently catch her reporting live from an apple orchard, dairy ranch, or on the fire lines. Desiring an even warmer climate, she headed to Fresno.

Fluent in Spanish, Pamela studied abroad in Ecuador during college, and enjoys the diverse cultures the Central Valley offers. In her spare time, Pamela likes to explore California with her husband. In addition to traveling, she enjoys spending time with family and friends. Pamela loves her job because it’s exciting and challenging to be in a different situation each and every day, but most importantly, because it is extremely rewarding to bring people stories that shape the community in which they live.
