Julianna Reichenbach joined the WAKA Action 8 News team as a Sports Anchor/Reporter in 2023. She grew up in Gainesville, Florida. Some of her fondest memories involve gathering around the couch on Saturdays to watch college football with her family.
Julianna went on to attend the University of Florida. Here, she fell in love with storytelling and sports journalism. She served as a WUFT News Sports Anchor and News Anchor/Reporter. She was also an on-air contributor for ESPN Gainesville and wrote for The Independent Florida Alligator and FloridaGators.com.
Over the summer of 2022, Julianna interned as a Studio Host/Reporter for the Northwoods League. Some of her best memories include the volleyball and softball beats, football games in The Swamp and covering the Gators’ 2023 College World Series run in Omaha.
Julianna is thrilled to stay in SEC Country because she knows how passionate the fans are about sports.
In high school, Julianna played three sports: volleyball, weightlifting and track and field. She later joined the UF club beach volleyball team.
Nowadays, Julianna continues to enjoy staying active— she loves any adventure, whether traveling, hiking or trying new foods.
She is excited to be part of the River Region community and looks forward to telling your stories.
