Duaa Israr, Reporter

Duaa Israr is a reporter with a passion for storytelling and human-interest stories. She graduated from DePaul University in 2021 with a double major in Journalism and Political Science. After graduating, she moved to La Crosse, Wisconsin where she worked for the CBS affiliate WKBT-TV for two years. During her time there, Duaa worked as a multi-media journalist and morning anchor.
