Before joining the ABC30 Action News Team, Brianna was a weekend anchor and reporter for KERO-TV in Bakersfield.

She also followed a case for months of a man who spent over 40 years in prison for a murder he did not commit. She covered the story until his release, and in addition to her exclusive jailhouse interview, she conducted a one-on-one interview with him once he was out of jail. Brianna has spoken with local leaders about valley congressman Kevin McCarthy's road to speakership.
