We’re nearly 75% of the way through 2025 and another one of KTVB’s familiar faces just said farewell to the Treasure Valley. With the recent announcement, she becomes the fifth reporter or anchor to leave the station this year.

The same year, she won the Idaho Press Club’s “Rookie of the Year” award for television. She followed that up with wins as part of the evening team reporting on Bryan Kohberger’s court appearance in 2023 and spot news for covering the hangar collapse near the Boise Airport in 2024. Davis also took the top prize for “Best Reporter” last year.

KTVB has also seen the departures of Jay Tust and Brady Frederick in 2025. Their positions were filled by Jordan Smith (KXLY/Spokane) and Austin Parr (ABC-FOX/Bozeman.)  Weekend anchor and reporter Jude Binkley recently departed KTVB for a job in Savannah, Georgia.
