Natalie Tolomeo is extremely excited to be in Central Florida!  She joined the News 13 team in June 2012 as a solo correspondent...shooting and editing her own stories she reports on a daily basis.

Born in Atlanta and raised in the suburbs of Chicago, Natalie loves hearing people's stories and sharing them with others.

Prior to moving to Orlando, Natalie was in Springfield, Massachusetts.

Murrow award and an AP award for breaking news coverage on the twister's devastating path of destruction.

Natalie worked as a reporter, anchor and producer for Independent News Network and KLJB in Davenport, IA before moving to Western Mass.  She graduated from Dominican University, which is located just outside of the Windy City.  She was named Most Distinguished Senior in Journalism.  While earning her degree in journalism, Natalie interned at WMAQ-NBC 5 in Chicago.
