Mycah Hatfield
While Mycah enjoys being part of the big things happening in the city, she also appreciates the day to day stories that have allowed her to meet people in the community and help them through a difficult challenge.
Her interest in investigative journalism began right out of college, driven by a desire to go beyond the surface and uncover the reasons behind the events. She doesn't see her work as simply telling a "story," but rather as a responsibility to the people who have entrusted her with real-life problems.
Before coming to Houston, Mycah worked as a reporter covering challenging stories at KJRH in Tulsa, Okla. and KATC in Lafayette, La. She has won several awards throughout her career, both from the journalism industry and from the groups she has covered.
Mycah grew up in Spring, Texas and attended Northland Christian School. Mycah is a proud Oklahoma Sooner and member of the Gamma Phi Beta sorority. She loves being back in the city she grew up in and enjoying everything that the Houston area has to offer.
She enjoys talking to people in the community and would love to hear from you whether that's in person if you catch her out and about, through email at mycah.b.hatfield@abc.com, send a tip to the 13 Investigates team, or call the 13 Investigates tip line at 713-663-8760.
