Kaelyn Blessinger

Kaelyn Blessinger is a Multimedia Journalist at Local News 8.

As a little girl growing up in El Paso, Texas, she found herself dreaming of becoming a journalist, much like the heroines from her favorite childhood movies.

During her time in college at The University of Texas at Arlington, she discovered a passion for the people around her and their untold stories.

After earning her degree in Organizational Communications, her dream of pursuing news started becoming a reality as she interned at KIFI’s sister station, KVIA, in El Paso. 

Now thrilled to call Idaho Falls home, she is excited to build meaningful connections within the community and share the stories that matter most to all who live here.
