Maria Guerrero joined NBC5 as a general assignment reporter in February 2017.
Texas is her home state. Maria was born in Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua, Mexico, but was raised in Lufkin, Texas since she was an infant. She knew she wanted to be a journalist while on a 6th-grade field trip to her local news station: KTRE-TV. Seeing the amount of work that went on behind the scenes to bring the news of the day to the public, as well as observing the process of asking tough questions and getting answers "sold" her on journalism.
