A new host with a familiar face is coming to 'Your Life Arizona' on 3TV. Here's who

Maravilla worked her way from intern to reporter and weekend anchor at 3TV in Phoenix to an anchor in Tampa, Florida, before moving back to Arizona to become the traffic anchor for "Good Morning Arizona."

“I am a proud, longtime resident of Arizona, and as part of the rich legacy and tradition of Arizona’s Family, I am excited to share with our viewers the fantastic lifestyle Arizona has to offer,” Maravilla said in an article on azfamily.com . “Along with Darrell, I am eager to shine a light on all the amazing businesses that call our state home.”

Maravilla graduated from Deer Valley High School in Glendale and Arizona State University and was a reporter at 3TV for a decade.

“I’m so excited to see Gina bring the power of 'Good Morning Arizona' to 'Your Life Arizona,'” Debbie Bush, vice president and general manager of Arizona’s Family, said in an article on azfamily.com .

“Gina was a natural to fill this role. She has a vast knowledge of the Valley and state of Arizona and is so passionate about storytelling. We are excited to see her connect with a whole new audience.”
