Along with Jorge Estevez, her coanchor,
she brought the 10 o'clock news on Channel 27 TV to number one for the
first time in more than 10 years. Alvarez joined the team at the ABC affiliate in May 2010 and
currently coanchors Eyewitness News This Morning, alongside Jamie
Homes. She is the daughter of Cuban immigrants and was born and raised
in south Florida, although she considers Orlando a second home. Alvarez
has spent most of her journalism career in central Florida, where she
has been front and center for every major news event in the last 15-
plus years. She spent years covering the space program at Kennedy Space Center,
and was also in central Florida for Hurricanes Charlie, Frances, and
Jean, reporting nonstop during the now-infamous 2004 hurricane season.
